What is an Aptonym?
According to linguist Frank Nuessel (see The Study of Names), an aptonym is the term used for "people whose names and occupations or situations (e.g., workplace) have a close correspondence." The name "aptonym" is a compound word which consists of the adjective "apt" (from Latin via Middle English) meaning "exactly suitable", or "appropriate". The second part of this word comes from the Greek "onuma" ('name').

In early times, when they said "son of" they said it "ap" or "ab". For example, "William ap'John", was "William the-son-of John". In the case of "Owen", it was "William ap'Owen" - which when said the least bit quickly, immediately becomes, "William Bowen".

William Bradford
Der Londoner Quäker William Bradford (* 1663, † 1732) gründete (zusammen mit anderen) 1690 in der Nähe von Germantown (Pa.) die erste Papiermühle Amerikas.
Eins der wichtigsten Bauelemente der Elektronik, der Transistor (bestehend aus einem Halbleiterkristall mit mindestens drei Elektroden), wurde 1948 von den amerikanischen Physikern John Bardeen (* Madison [Wis.] 1908, † Boston [Mass.] 1991), Walter Houser Brattain (* Amoy [China] 1902, † Seattle [Wash.] 1987) und William Bradford Shockley (* London 1910, † Stanford [Calif.] 1989) in den Bell Telephone Laboratories in Murray Hill (N. Y.) entwickelt, wofür sie 1956 den Nobelpreis für Physik erhielten.
Ihr erster Transistor (Spitzentransistor) war ein dünnes Plättchen des halbleitenden Materials "Germanium".
Am 22. Dezember 1947 bauten die Wissenschaftler erstmals ein solches Element statt einer Elekronenröhre in einen Musikverstärker und erzielten mit ihm die gleiche Wirkung wie mit einer Verstärkerröhre. Der Transistor hat gegenüber der Elektronenröhre wesentliche Vorteile: Er ist beträchtlich kleiner, langlebiger und hat einen weit geringeren Energiebedarf.
Nach Verbesserung des Transistors in den nächsten Jahren (1952 war er noch zehnmal kleiner geworden als zu Anfang, das Baumaterial "Germanium" war durch reines, kristallines Silizium ersetzt worden u.a.) wurden 1955 die ersten Transistoren serienmäßig hergestellt. 1956 waren bereits 164 verschiedene Transistorarten auf dem Markt.
Transistoren sind nicht nur als Verstärkerelemente, sondern auch als elektronische Schalter zu verwenden und arbeiten mit den für moderne Computer erforderlichen Schaltgeschwindigkeiten. Sie haben Taschenrechner und Digitaluhren möglich gemacht und die Röhren in Rundfunk und Fernsehgeräten ersetzt.
Die Weiterentwicklung der Transistor-Technologie hat zur Miniaturisierung elektronischer Schaltkreise geführt (integrierte Schaltkreise [1959]).
Bradford: English Place Name...Settlers near a crossing point on a watercourse often adopted 'ford' as their surname. A wide crossing was a 'broad-ford' and those living there - Bradford. Incidentally, Bradford was one of the 50 surnames of people arriving on the Mayflower in 1620. Requested by: Glenn Bradford

"Collard" is derived in a round-about way from the given name "Nicholas". In several European languages where the accent tends toward the second syllable in "Ni-chol-as", the first syllable is eventually lost due to lazy pronunciation. It's called "aphetic loss", for example, when the word "esquire" becomes "squire" over time. "Collard" was derived as a pejorative form of "Coll". Other variations are "Colle" (French), "Cola" and "Colao" (Italian), "Colle" (Dutch), "Col" and "Colla" (Flemish).

Isadora Duncan (geboren als Angela Isadora Duncan, * 27. Mai 1877 in San Francisco, USA; † 14. September 1927 in Nizza) war eine US-amerikanische Tänzerin und Choreografin. Duncan war die Wegbereiterin des modernen sinfonischen Ausdruckstanzes, entwickelte ein neues Körper- und Bewegungsempfinden, das sich am griechischen Schönheitsideal orientierte, und setzte als Erste klassische Konzertmusik tänzerisch um. Als Gegnerin des klassischen Balletts versuchte sie, den Tanz der Antike wieder zu beleben.
...
Duncan starb mit 50 Jahren. Als sie mit einem Begleiter in einem offenen Amilcar in Nizza spazieren fahren wollte, verfing sich ihr langer roter Seidenschal, den sie um ihren Hals geschlungen hatte, vor der Abfahrt in den Radspeichen des Sportwagens, so dass der scharfe Ruck bei der Anfahrt des Wagens ihr Genick brach. Sie verstarb am Unfallort.
Ihre Lebensgeschichte wurde 1968 in dem Streifen "Isadora" mit Vanessa Redgrave in der Hauptrolle verfilmt. Spätere Legendenbildung um die Person Isadora Duncans und der Umstand, dass Bugatti heute noch eine etablierte Luxus-Automarke ist, führen immer wieder zu der falschen Annahme, der Unfall sei in einem Bugatti geschehen.

"Heard" is an English Occupational name for the "tender of animals", normally a "shepherd" or "cow herder", derived from Middle English "hearde" and Old English "hierde" = "herd", "flock". Variants are "Heardman", "Herd" (Scottish primarily), "Herdman", "Hardman", "Hird", "Hurd", "Hurdman", "Hearder"; cognates are "Hirth", "Hirter", "Herter", "Herder", "Horter" (German) and diminutive forms include "Hirtel" and "Hirtle".
Wolf and Werewolf
The Anglo-Saxons, like many old European peoples, seemed to have a double perception of wolves. On the one hand, wolves were feared and hated. Wolves had been driven from farmlands for centuries. In "Deor's Lament" the evil king Eormanric has "wylfenne geðohtas" ("wolfish" - perhaps "she-wolfish" -- "thoughts"). The enemy Danes in "The Battle of Maldon" are "waelwulfas" ("slaughter-wolfs"). And "Wulfstan" names the devil a "werewulf".
On the other hand, as the name "Wulfstan" shows, the word "Wulf" is one of the commonest compounds in Anglo-Saxon names, appearing also in "Beowulf" (lit. "bee-wolf," a kenning for "bear"), "Cynewulf", "Ealdwulf" and "Ethelwulf".

"MERCER" (through Fr. "mercier", from popular Lat. "mercerius", a "dealer", "merchandise"), a dealer in the more costly textiles, especially in silks and velvets. The word formerly had a wider meaning. "Mercery", according to W. Herbert (History of the Twelve Great Livery Companies, 1834), "comprehended all things sold by retail by the "little balance" or small scales (in contradistinction to the things sold by the "beam" or in gross), and included not only toys, together with haberdashery and various other articles connected with dress, but also spices and drugs." Many of the articles in which they dealt fell later within the sphere of other trades; thus the trade in the smaller articles of dress was taken over by the haberdashers (q.v.). The trade in silk seems to have been originally in the hands of the "silkmen and throwsteres." The Mercers' Company is the first in precedence of the twelve great livery companies of the city of London, and is also the wealthiest both in trust and corporate property. The first charter was obtained in 1393, but the mercers appear to have been formed into a gild much earlier. Herbert finds the mercers as patrons of a charity a few years after 1172, and one Robert Searle, who was mayor in 1214, was a "mercer." A further charter was granted in 1424, with the right to use a common seal. The history of the company is closely connected with the name of Richard Whittington, and later with that of Dean Colet, who chose the company as the manager of St Paul's School. (See LIVERY COMPANIES.)
"MERCERIZING", the term applied to a process, discovered in 1844 by "John Mercer", a Lancashire calico printer, which consists in treating cotton (and to a limited extent other plant fibres) with strong caustic soda or certain other reagents, whereby morphological and chemical changes are brought about in the fibre. Thus, if a piece of bleached calico be immersed in caustic soda of 50° Tw. strength (sp. gr. 1.25), it rapidly changes in appearance, becoming stiff and translucent, but when taken out and well washed in running water it loses these properties and apparently reverts to its original condition. On closer examination, however, the fabric is found to have shrunk considerably both in length and breadth, so as to render the texture quite different in appearance to that of the original calico; it is also considerably stronger, and if dyed in the same bath along with some of the untreated fabric is found to have acquired a greatly increased affinity for colouring matters.
...
In Mercer's time the process, which he himself termed "sodaizing" or "fulling", never acquired any degree of corn mercial success, partly on account of the expense of the caustic soda required, but mainly on account of the great shrinkage (20 to 25%) which took place in the cloth.

Washington Roebling was friends with William Walter, who had been making a small number of high-quality automobiles in New York City. The Kusers owned a vacant brewery in Hamilton, New Jersey, and brought Walter and his car factory there in 1906. However, Walter found himself deeply in debt by 1909, so the Roeblings and Kusers bought him out in a foreclosure sale. They changed the company name to "Mercer", named after "Mercer County", New Jersey. Talented designers and race drivers contributed to the new effort, and the focus became proving their product in competition.

"Mercer", a British English term for a dealer in fine fabrics, also survives as a surname. "Mercenary", meaning "one who serves for wages", usually refers to a soldier-of-fortune [Söldner], but as an adjective, in addition to referring to one who enlists in a foreign army or fights for a private client, means "greedy" or "venal".

Variants "Mercer", "Mercier". An occupational name meaning "the mercer", from a person who made his living dealing in Clothes. This name is of English descent and is found in many ancient manuscripts in the above country. Examples of such are a "Jordan de Mercer", County Lincolnshire, who was recorded in the 'Hundred Rolls', England, in the year 1273 and an "Adelard le Mercer", County Oxfordshire, was also recorded in the same year in this ancient document. Names were recorded in these ancient documents to make it easier for their overlords to collect taxes and to keep records of the population at any given time. When the overlords acquired land by either force or gifts from their rulers, they created charters of ownership for themselves and their vassals. Other examples of this name were found in the person of a "Johannes Mercer", who was recorded in the 'Poll Tax', of the West Riding of Yorkshire, in the year 1379 and a "Sucess Mercer" was baptised in Saint Michael, Cornhill, in the year 1694.
"mercer" (n.): early 12c., "dealer in textile", from Old French "mercier" "shopkeeper", "tradesman", from Vulgar Latin "*merciarius", from Latin "merx" (see "market" (n.)).

...
What is a "Sept"
In Scotland, a "sept" is often a family that is absorbed into a larger Scottish clan for mutual benefit. For example, the "Mercer family sept" was absorbed into the "Clan CampMercer". The Mercer family, being very small and of questionable heritage, gained legitimacy and protection; the CampBrisbane clan absorbed a potential rival for British affection in Scotland. Each Scottish clan typically has a number of septs, each with its own surname. Septs have rights to wear clan tartans although they often have tartans of their own.

Gustav Goedel: Etymologisches Wörterbuch der deutschen Seemannssprache
"Mars", der: "Mastkorb": Oft genug sind Binnenländer, die von einem "Mastkorb" sprachen, mitleidig über die Achsel angesehen worden, "als ob der Mars ein Korb wäre, damit hat er ja nicht die geringste Ähnlichkeit"! Und doch hat "Mastkorb" seine volle Berechtigung. Früher ist er wirklich ein "Korb" gewesen, ein einfacher schlichter Korb, der mächtige Bau den wir jetzt "Mars" nennen. Der niederdeutsche Seemann sagt "Märs" oder "Mers" und beweist auch hier wieder sein zähes Festhalten am Ursprünglichen. Daß er "die" Mers sagt hängt nicht nur mit der niederdeutschen Unbestimmtheit des bestimmten Artikels zusammen, sondern mag noch eine ferne Erinnerung an "merx", die "Ware", "Kaufmannsware" sein, aus der "Mers" sich entwickelt hat.
Im Mittelalter hatte das aus Italien nach Deutschland gekommene Institut des Feilbietens im Umherziehen, des Klein- und Hausierhandels, eine große und wichtige Bedeutung; es war "Handel und Wandel". Wie so manches andere Kaufmannswort brachte der wandernde deutsche Händler das Wort "merx" aus Italien mit über die Alpen und gebrauchte es in der Form "meersse", "mersse", "mers". Heißt doch heute noch im Französischen und im Munde und auf den Schildern deutscher Ladeninhaber "Kramhandel" "mercerie", oft in Verbindung mit "quincaillerie", das, so französisch es auch aussieht, doch deutsch ist.
Die "mers" nun, die zum Hausieren bestimmte oder auch an den Straßenecken ausgebotene Ware ward in Körben herumgetragen und feil gehalten. So nannte man bald den Korb nach seinem Inhalte "mers".
Schon Kilianus sagt "meersse", "meers" heiße "Korf", "corbis institutoris", "canistrum institutorium", und zwar ist "institutor" ein Mann, der irgendwo steht, um Sachen zu verkaufen, bei uns hat er aber mehr gehockt als gestanden, denn wir nennen ihn "Höcker".
"Meersmann" aber übersetzt Kilian mit "circitor", "circuitor", das ist einer, der keinen festen Stand hat, sondern mit seinem Korbe umherzieht; "meers-schiip" aber mit "corbita", siehe unter "Korvette".
Erst hieß also "Mers" nur die Ware im Korb; dann "Ware" und "Korb"; zuletzt "Korb" allein. In diesem Sinne, als "Korb", wurde dann der "Mers" am Mast befestigt für den Mann am Ausguck. Mit dem Wachsen der Takelage und der damit verbundenen Notwendigkeit, Leute nach oben zu ihrer Bedienung zu schicken, ergab sich dann nach und nach das Bedürfnis, den "Mars" als "Korb" fallen zu lassen und ein Holzgestell mit einem Korbgeflecht oder Netzwerk als Schutz gegen Absturz zu errichten, aber der einmal angenommene Name blieb.
Und wir sollten der größeren Deutlichkeit wegen lieber auch so schreiben wie der Seemann spricht, schon damit keiner auf den Gedanken komme, das Wort [323] habe mit dem Kriegsgotte "Mars" ("Mavors") etwas zu tun. Auch würden wir uns damit wieder in Übereinstimmung mit dem Sprachgebrauch der großen, herrlichen Seemannszeit der Hansa setzen. Denn daß die "Mers" sagte, dafür noch einige Beispiele.
- "Also halp en got, dat sie den Koggen behelden myt werhafter hant onde skoten dar mit haghelscote onde worpen mit stenen vte der mersen" ("Bremische Geschichtsquellen").
- "Na mennighen daghen horden se bulderinghe der bulghen, alze eft se yegen eyn land floeghen onde lethen enen op styghen in de mersch, eft he yennich lant vernehme" ("Dänische Chronik").
- Die im 15. Jahrhundert erschienene Chronik des Lübecker Dominikaners Hermann Korner erzählt von "66 schepe mit merssen vnde vorkastelen."

History of "Mercer"
In the late 1940s, Thelma and Charles Mercer purchased a beautiful 14.5 acre tract of natural land along Cypress Creek. Thelma was an avid horticulturist, and she and Charles did much of the initial selective clearing to make space for some of her favorite native trees that included dogwoods, rusty black-haw viburnum, several species of hawthorns, plus many others. Thelma also planted large camellias that are still seen throughout the central gardens. She also introduced many other plant species, such as camphor, Ginkgo, Bauhinia, Philadelphus and tung oil that naturalized and are still growing beautifully.

Eponyms from Surnames from Occupations
Last week we've seen how an occupation can become a surname. In previous "eponyms" themes we've seen how a person's surname can become a new word.
So in theory a word could combine both steps: a profession becomes a surname, and then a person of that surname gives rise to an eponym. In fact, it's happened surprising often, and this week we'll look at eponyms of that sort.
Our first eponym comes from a "Mr. Mercer". A "mercer" is a cloth merchant, as we saw last week, and by odd coincidence Mr. Mercer's eponym relates to the textile industry.

Nicknames
Sometimes a "nickname" became a hereditary surname. Names such as "Fox", from the crafty animal, or "White", perhaps from the hair or complexion, are widespread. However, the pronounced regional distribution of names such as Nice" in Essex or "Wildgoose" in Derbyshire suggests single family origins. In some cases, "nicknames" are from Norman-French words, such as "Papillon" (dainty or inconsistent, from "butterfly") or "Foljambe" ("deformed leg").
Names deriving from plants and animals are almost certainly "nicknames" - such as "Catt", "Sparrow" and "Oak" - but may also be location names or even occupations. But most "nicknames" come from colour, complexion or form - names such as "Armstrong" and "Strongitharm", "Heavyside", "Quickly", "Slowman", "Smallman", "Fairfax" and "Blunt" ("fair-haired").
Other examples of "nicknames" derive from personal or moral qualities, for example "Good", "Goodchild", "Thoroughgood", "Allgood", "Toogood" and "Goodenough". Other examples are "Joly", "Jolibois" and "Joliffe", or "Kennard" ("royal-brave"). And some - such as "Puttock" ("greedy") or "Coe" ("jackdaw") - show contempt or ridicule.
The surname "Blake" may seem fairly straightforward but there are two derivations. Firstly as a variation of "Black", a descriptive name for someone of dark appearance, and secondly originating as the Old English word, "blac" meaning "wan" or "fair" - two completely opposite meanings. In Wiltshire, the surname "Black" is not a common one, greatly outnumbered by "Blake".

Where Surnames Come From
English and British surnames (family names) have four main sources: the person's occupation, the place of origin, a "nickname" and relations. Examples of these can be seen in the tables below.
...
Nicknames
Name - Meaning
Armstrong - strong armed Campbell - crooked mouth Goldwater - urine (derogatory) Kennedy - Gaelic: ugly head Morgan - Welsh: white haired Russell - French: red haired Whistler - one who whistles Whitehead - white headed
...
Let’s begin with the Oxford English Dictionary’s etymology and definition of "nickname". The Anglo-Saxon work "eke" means "also"; the phrase "eke-name", then, means "also name" or "another name". When you add the indefinite article, you get "an eke-name" and over time the "n" switches over, giving us "a neke-name" or finally "a nickname".

Angel, Philips
"Phillips" / "Philips": "Philip" was an extremely popular name in medieval times - Philip was one of the apostles, and four French kings were named Philip from the 11th to the 13th century. The name - which means "lover of horses" - came into England from France at the time of the conquest. "Philips" is patronymic (named after the father Philip, whose sons would be referred to as "Philip's sons"). The common Welsh and English version of the surname is spelled with two l's, giving the descendants the surname "Phillips". "Phillips" is a variation of the English, French, Dutch/Flemish, and Danish/Norwegian Patronymic name "Phillip"/"Philip" from the Greek name "Philippos" and elements "philein" = "to love" + "hippos" = "horse". Its popularity seems to have been due to medieval stories about Alexander the Great, whose father was "Philip of Macedon". Variations are "Philipp", "Phillip", "Philp", "Phelp", "Phalp" (English); "Philippe", "Phelip", "Felip", "Phelit", "Philip", "Phalip" (French); "Filip" (Flemish/Dutch). There are numerous other diminutive, patronymic, and cognative forms.

Origin of Surnames
by Kathi Reid
A surname, also known as a last name or family name, is a fixed name shared in common with the members of a family and is passed down from generation to generation.
The use of a surname is relatively new in history and was adopted in order to legally distinguish two individuals with the same first name.
At first, these last names were not passed down to the next generation.

Shand is a Scottish name, Shands is the Patronymic version of the name, that is, the equivalent of "son of Shand." The origin of Shand itself is uncertain, but may be a shortened form of Alexander. It may also be a Place name from Chandai, located in Orne, and recorded in the 12th century.
Shand: A rare but old surname in Scotland. The surname of Shand seems originally to have been confined to the north-eastern counties, particularly Aberdeenshire, and in that county more especially to the districts comprising the parishes of Turriff, Forgue, Drumblade, Auchterless, Culsalmond, Fyvie, King-Edward, and Gamrie. In old times it was variously spelled Schawand, Schaand (1696), Schande, Schand (1528), and Shand ... We have also Shandscross given to certain lands on the estate of Delgarty. Magister Robert Schawnd was prebendary of Arnaldston, 1522. Probably French, Philibert de Shaunde was created earl of Bath in 1485; but nothing is known of him, except that he was a native of Brittany. The Surnames of Scotland by George F. Black, 1946

§ 17. Stockton.
But the interest created by the appearance of Marjorie Daw was mild compared with that accorded to Frank R. Stockton’s The Lady or the Tiger? (1884). Stockton (1834-1902) had not the technique of Aldrich nor his naturalness and ease. Certainly he had not his atmosphere of the beau monde and his grace of style, but in whimsicality and unexpectedness and in that subtle art that makes the obviously impossible seem perfectly plausible and commonplace, he surpassed not only him but Edward Everett Hale and all others. After Stockton and The Lady or the Tiger? it was realized even by the uncritical that short story writing had become a subtle art and that the master of its subtleties had his reader at his mercy.

§ 11. Fanciful Tales; Stockton; Uncle Remus.
But in one way, equally characteristic of the American temperament and American adult literature, children’s writers have lagged behind the European world. In the domain of pure fancy very little has been accomplished. As the century entered its closing decades protests were heard against the prevailing realism, and appeals for the restoration of those idealistic qualities which enkindle the child’s imagination elsewhere. In fairy tales, Frank R. Stockton 14 stands almost alone in having done any considerable quantity of work possessing literary value. The wise humorous style of his fanciful tales and their grotesque droll material make them exceptional.

Stockton entered the NBA in 1984. To basketball connoisseurs, he was an intriguing prospect, a pocket Jerry Sloan with incredible passing instincts. But to casual fans, he was simply an obscure player from a small school in a far-flung city. "Is that Stockton from Gonzaga," they cracked, "or Gonzaga from Stockton?"

Explorations in Africa, By Dr. David Livingstone, and Others, Giving a Full Account of the Stanley-Livingstone Expedition of Search, under the Patronage of the New York Herald, as Furnished by Dr. Livingstone and Mr. Stanley
Description
David Livingstone (1813-73) was a Scottish missionary and medical doctor who explored much of the interior of Africa. In a remarkable journey in 1853-56, he became the first European to cross the African continent. Starting on the Zambezi River, he traveled north and west across Angola to reach the Atlantic at Luanda. On his return journey he followed the Zambezi to its mouth on the Indian Ocean in present-day Mozambique. Livingstone’s most famous expedition was in 1866-73, when he explored central Africa in an attempt to find the source of the Nile. Not heard from for years, he was believed lost. Both the Royal Geographical Society and the sensationalist New York Herald organized expeditions to find him. Henry M. Stanley (1841-1904), a British-born reporter who was to become a noted explorer in his own right, led the Herald’s expedition. On November 10, 1871, Stanley found Livingstone in the town of Ujiji, on the shores of Lake Tanganyika, in present-day Tanzania. News of the discovery caused a worldwide sensation. This book, which appeared in Chicago in 1872, was part of the effort by publishers to capitalize on the demand from the public for information about Livingstone and Stanley and about Africa in general.

Witherspoon Family History
Witherspoon Name Meaning
Scottish: nickname probably for a quarrelsome or stubborn person perhaps ultimately of European continental rather than English or Scottish origin. The name is recorded as "Widerspon" in late 12th-century Lynn (Norfolk) an important east coast port and as "Withyrspon" in late 13th-century SW Scotland where the surname became established as a Scottish family name perhaps through migration there of a member of the Lynn family. Its early presence in an east coast port where many of its residents were foreign migrants from the continent suggests a possible Germanic origin on the North Sea or Baltic coast. The name is an exact parallel for Middle High German "widerspan" = "quarrel dispute" which forms German surnames such as "Widerspan", "Widerspon", modern "Wiederspahn"; compare the Modern German word "widerspenstig" = "stubborn". The Middle English name may be borrowed from a cognate word in a coastal dialect such as Middle Low German or Old Frisian. Alternatively it may be from a native Middle English word corresponding in form and sense to the continental name but that is not attested.

* 22. März 1976 in Nashville, Tennessee, USA • Schauspielerin, Produzentin • Biographie • Filmografie •
Biographie Reese Witherspoon hat sich mit einer Vielzahl von eindrucksvollen Rollen zu einer der gefragtesten jungen Darstellerinnen Hollywoods entwickelt.
Als Produzentin betreibt sie die TYPE A Films, eine Produktionsfirma unter dem Dach von Universal, die derzeit mehrere Projekte entwickelt. Für ihre Darstellung in Natürlich Blond!, einer der erfolgreichsten Filme des Kinojahrs 2001, wurde sie mit einer Golden-Globe-Nominierung geehrt. Im Winter 2002 war sie auch in Andy Tennants romantischer Komödie Sweet Home Alabama - Liebe auf Umwegen zu sehen, der erste Witherspoon-Film, der allein in den USA über 100 Millionen Dollar einspielte.
Die ganze Bandbreite ihres komödiantischen und dramatischen Talents zeigte sie auch in der Oscar-Wilde-Verfilmung Ernst sein ist alles an der Seite von Rupert Everett und Judi Dench.
Reese Witherspoon stammt aus Nashville, Tennessee, und zog schon mit ihrem ersten Auftritt in Robert Mulligans Coming-of-Age-Drama Der Mann im Mond Publikum und Kritik gleichermaßen in ihren Bann.
Danach spielte sie neben Patricia Arquette in Diane Keatons Inszenierung Wilde Alice und übernahm anschließend die Hauptrolle im Abenteuerfilm Die Spur des Windes.
1996 spielte sie die terrorisierte Freundin von Mark Wahlberg in James Foleys Thriller Fear - Wenn Liebe Angst macht und anschließend in dem von Oliver Stone produzierten HBO-Movie Freeway.
Die Komödie von Regisseur Matthew Bright lief auf dem Sundance Film Festival und bescherte dem Pay-TV-Sender Rekordeinschaltquoten.
Auch in Pleasantville, dem Regiedebüt von Gary Ross, stellte Witherspoon ihr komödiantisches Talent unter Beweis. Mit Tobey Maguire spielte sie ein Geschwisterpaar, das aus der heutigen Zeit in die vermeintlich heile Welt einer 50er-Jahre-Soap-Opera katapultiert wird.
Aus demselben Jahr stammt auch Robert Bentons kühler Thriller Im Zwielicht, in dem sie neben Paul Newman, Gene Hackman und Susan Sarandon zu sehen war.
Das jüngere Kinopublikum eroberte Reese Witherspoon spätestens als tugendhafte Jungfrau in Eiskalte Engel, einer chic-modernen Fassung des Romanklassikers Gefährliche Liebschaften.
Nächste Etappe in einem arbeitsreichen Jahr war für Witherspoon die intelligente Satire Election (Regie: Alexander Payne). Für ihre Darstellung eines überehrgeizigen Highschool-Girls, das unbedingt Klassensprecherin werden will, wurde die Schauspielerin vom amerikanischen Filmkritikerverband ausgezeichnet und für einen Golden Globe nominiert.
Daneben war sie unter anderem in Best Laid Plans und der Horrorsatire American Psycho zu sehen.
Reese Witherspoon ist mit dem Schauspieler-Kollegen Ryan Phillippe, ihrem Partner in Eiskalte Engel, verheiratet.

Significant Scots
Dr John Witherspoon
WITHERSPOON, JOHN, D. D., LL. D., an eminent divine and theological writer, was born, February 5, 1722, in the parish of Yester. His father, who was minister of that parish, was a man of singular worth, and of much more than ordinary abilities. Young Witherspoon received the earlier part of his education at the public school of Haddington, where he distinguished himself by his diligence, and by the rapid proficiency he made in classical attainments. He was, also, even at this early period of his life, remarkable for that soundness of judgment, and readiness of conception, which aided so much in procuring him the favour he afterwards enjoyed. On completing the usual initiatory learning observed at the school of Haddington, he was removed to the university of Edinburgh, where he continued to attend the various classes necessary to qualify him for the sacred profession for which he was intended, until he had attained his twenty-first year, when he was licensed to preach the gospel. He was soon after this invited to become assistant and successor to his father; but held this appointment for a very short time only, having received a presentation, in 1744, from the earl of Eglinton, to the parish of Beith, of which he was ordained minister, with the unanimous consent of the people, in the following year.

Laura Jeanne Reese Witherspoon - amerikanische Schauspielerin und Oscar-Preisträgerin. Bekannt wurde sie vor allem durch ihre Rollen in "Pleasantville - Zu schön, um wahr zu sein", "Election", "Eiskalte Engel", "Natürlich blond" und "Walk the Line". Witherspoon lebte als Kleinkind vier Jahre in Deutschland, da ihr Vater John als Militärarzt bei der US Air Force in Wiesbaden stationiert war. Nach der Rückkehr in die Vereinigten Staaten wuchs sie in Nashville auf. Witherspoon ist eine direkte Nachfahrin des in Schottland geborenen und in die USA ausgewanderten "John Witherspoon", der zu den Unterzeichnern der US-amerikanischen Unabhängigkeitserklärung gehörte. Im Alter von sieben Jahren wurde sie für Werbespots eines Blumenhändlers verpflichtet. Nach dem Abschluss der High-School, begann sie ein Studium der englischen Literatur an der Stanford University, brach dieses Studium jedoch zu Gunsten ihrer Schauspielkarriere ab. 1998 entdeckte Paul Newman Witherspoon für seinen Thriller "Im Zwielicht". Größere Bekanntheit erlangt sie 1998 neben Tobey Maguire in der Komödie "Pleasantville - Zu schön, um wahr zu sein", welche sowohl bei Kritikern als auch beim Publikum ein Erfolg war. 2001 gelang ihr mit der Hauptrolle der Elle Woods in der Komödie "Natürlich blond" der endgültige Durchbruch.
Amerikanisches Englisch unter besonderer Berücksichtigung seiner historischen Entwicklung
Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede im Vergleich zum Britischen Englisch
...
1.2 Entwicklungen im 18. und 19. Jahrhundert
Es gibt wenig Quellen für die Entwicklung des Amerikanischen im 18. Jahrhundert; gewiß ist nur, daß die ersten eigenständigen Amerikanismen zu dieser Zeit geprägt wurden. Der gängigste Beleg dafür sind die Quellen von "JOHN WITHERSPOON" (1723-1794; geboren in Schottland. Theologe und Staatsmann; später Präsident der Princeton University, New Jersey), die von deutlichen Unterschieden in Syntax und Wortschatz zeugen. WITHERSPOON, der intensive linguistische Forschungen betrieb, führte als erster den Begriff "Americanism" ein (in Anlehnung an den schon damals existierenden Begriff "Scotticism"), um einen spezifisch amerikanischen Gebrauch zu kennzeichnen. Er sah jedoch das amerikanische Englisch durchaus differenziert:
»It does not follow in every case that the terms or phrases used are worse in themselves, but merely that they are of American and not of English growth.«
»The vulgar in America speak much better than the vulgar in England.«
So sehr sich WITHERSPOON auch bemühte, bei seiner Betrachtung durchaus auch soziale Unterschiede zu berücksichtigen, blieb sein Maßstab dennoch der eines gebildeten Engländers wie generell lange Zeit britisches Englisch als das Sprachideal auch in Nord-Amerika angesehen wurde (dies gilt teilweise heute noch grundsätzlich für das Gebiet im Nord-Osten der USA).

Witherspoon History, Family Crest & Coats of Arms
Origins Available: Scotland - England
The ancestors of the Witherspoon name date back to the kingdom of Dalriada in ancient Scotland. "Witherspoon" was a name for someone who lived in various places throughout Scotland. It may have been a habitation name from a now lost place name, thought to come from the Old English terms "wether", which means "sheep", and "spong", or from "spang", which means "a narrow strip of land".

Laura Reese Witherspoon joue les modèles dès son septième anniversaire et apparait dans de nombreuses publicités, avant de devenir une brillante gymnaste pendant sept ans. A quinze ans, cette végétarienne convaincue retrouve les chemins des plateaux et figure dans quelques téléfilms (dont un réalisé par Diane Keaton) et productions pour enfants. Mais elle s'affranchit vite de cette image de jeune petite fille sage que les réalisateurs lui donnent, et connait vite de gros succès à 20 ans en interprétant une fille traquée par son petit copain vengeur dans Fear, puis dans le rôle d'un petit chaperon rouge rebelle dans Freeway (1996).

Witherspoon Surname Meaning, History & Origin
The name "Witherspoon" is Scottish. Its meaning is uncertain. "Sheep pasture" has been suggested, wether being an archaic name for "sheep" and "spong" being an obsolete English word for "a tongue-shaped of land". But no one is quite sure.
...
Scotland. "Witherspoon" is to be found in Lanarkshire, Glasgow, and Paisley. There were many early spellings of the name. James "Wydderspoon", for instance, born in 1435, is the forebear of a family line that has been traced. But only "Witherspoon" and, to some extent, "Wotherspoon", have survived. Early 18th century registers show more "Wotherspoons" than "Witherspoons" (although the "Witherspoons" had spread a little more widely).
Many Witherspoons were weavers by trade; many were clergymen. In fact, the Presbyterian faith propounded by John Knox had taken a deep hold on the weaving community. John C. Witherspoon, related on his mother’s side to Knox, became one of the most admired preachers of his day.
America. Three Witherspoons brought their stern Presbyterian faith to America.

Recorded in many forms including "Wilderspoon", "Witherspoon", "Witherspon", "Widderspoon", "Wildespin", and "Wotherspoon", this is an English surname. It has been recorded in the north of England since at least the time of King Edward 1st (1272 - 1307, when it appears in the Hundred Rolls of trhe county of Nottinghamshire in the first year of his reign. This recording shows that Adam "Wytherpyn" held lands in that county, whilst in the same year Adam "Wyerpin" is also recorded a hundred miles away, a long distance in those times, in the county of Norfolk. The name however seems to have been most popular in the county of Yorkshire where it appears several times in the famous Poll Tax registers of the year 1379. This includes examples such as Willelmus "Wytherspone" and Johannes "Withspone". The famous Victorian etymologist Canon Charles Bardsley writng in the year 1880 says 'I can make nothing of this name, and I leave it to the consideration of more enlightened students'. Sadly 'more enlightened students' have been few and far between, and even now no definitive answer as to the origin has been provided. Our suggestion is that it may be job descriptive for a maker of steel pins, but it may equally have originated from a now lost medieval place perhaps called 'wir pont' or similar, meaning "the lake on the marsh land".

X-Bonus: Never rise to speak till you have something to say; and when you have said it, cease. (John Witherspoon, 1723-1794)
John Witherspoon (1723-1794) was a Scottish-born American Presbyterian divine and educator. He transformed the College of New Jersey (later Princeton) from a poor theological seminary into a vigorous academic community.
John Witherspoon was born into a ministerial family near Edinburgh on Feb. 5, 1723. He matriculated at the University of Edinburgh at 13 and took his master of arts degree in 1739 and his divinity degree 4 years later. In 1745 he accepted the call to the pulpit of Beith in Ayrshire. There he married Elizabeth Montgomery, who bore him ten children, only five of whom survived.
...
Witherspoon was just the man for the presidency of the College of New Jersey, which was torn between new-and old-side factionalism, and the job was offered him in 1766. But his wife thought that to leave home "would be as a sentence of death to her." The persuasiveness of Benjamin Rush, an alumnus of the college, and now a medical student at Edinburgh, finally allayed her fears. Witherspoon and his family arrived in America in August 1768, loaded with valuable books for the college library.
