Norman

norman English Etymology From en enm Norman, from en ang Norman (a variant of ang Norþman) and en fro Normant. It is certain that the word is derived from the base of the en gem words for en north and the Germanic base of the words for en man. However, given the frequent movement of Germanic groups especially into and out of Britain in the post-classical world, it is unclear in what tongue it came to be used first. In addition, the generally accepted meaning, a person from Normandy or one of the many French-speaking invaders to Britain, was used chiefly by Anglo-Norman and en fro -, though it originally referred to any Scandinavian of the time. See also en Northman.
