I've been talkin to a guy who shares the same name as I, and he says that the name 'Tatton' dates back to 16th century England to a warrior named 'Tata' famed for raping and pilaging. I was wondering if anyone reqognizes the name Tata and has any useful infromation in the name/ the man.
thanks,
T

Tatton is a place name in England and probably means "farmstead, estate of a man named Tata".

The name Tata is an Old English masculine name and means "glad, cheerful" (the name Tate is derived from it).

I hope this helps you :)
