Meaning & History

Scottish (of Norman origin): habitational name from any of various places in northern France named with Old Norse hagi ‘enclosure’, a word with cognates in most Germanic languages. Compare Hay.

English: variant spelling of Haigh.

Irish (County Cavan): reduced Anglicized form of Gaelic Mac Thaidhg (see McCaig).

FOREBEARS The Scottish Borders family of Haig were Normans from La Hague in Manche, Normandy. Their first ancestor in Scotland was Petrus del Hage, whose name appears on documents of the 1160s. The direct line died out in 1867 and the ancestral manor of Bemersyde passed into other hands, but in 1921 it was purchased by the nation and presented to Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig (1861–1928), who had been created 1st Earl Haig in 1919.
