1.
For thousands of years people had only first names. Then, at the beginning of
the 11th century people understood that was not enough. For example, there
were two Davids in town and one of them was lazy. So people began to call him
“David who do little". And this became David Doolittle. Thus surnames came to
our life.
2.
Once people got into the habit of giving a person two names, they thought of
many ways of creating this second name. One way was to mention the father's
name. If John had a father who was William, John could become John William-
son, or John Williams, or John Wilson (Will's son), or John Wills.

Another way for people to get a second name was to mention the place where
a person lived or came from. A man who lived near the woods might get the last
name Wood, John Wood, for example. If he lived near the village green, people
called him John Green. And then, of course, the work that a person did was
a good way to call him – John Smith or John Taylor.
4.
Nowadays Americans have cents. But they used to have dimes (10 cents) and
nickels (5 cents). How did the names appear? A dime comes originally from the
Latin word decimus which means “tenth”. The cent comes directly from the
French word cent which means “one hundred”. The idea was that one hundred
cents make a dollar.
5.
In different centuries you can hear different names that people use when they
speak about coins. The English words crown and sovereign, the foreign words
krone, kroon, corona show that some crowned authority first gave permission to
make them.
