" It may sound a little strange when I tell my readers that the name of Dymoke is Welsh. Sir Bernard Burke tells us that the Dy mokes or Dymocks for the name is spelt both ways claim a traditional descent from Tudor Trevor, Lord of Hereford and Whittirigton, and founder of th...e tribe of the Marches. The chief had three sons, the second of whom, marrying a daughter of the Prince of North Wales, half a century before the Norman Conquest, became the ancestor of one David ap Madoc, who in the Welsh tongue was styled colloquially Dai Madoc, the word Dai being the short form of David, just as we put " Will" for William, or " Jim" for James. His son and heir was David ap Dai Madoc, or David Dai Madoc ; and by the usual abridgement " Dai Madoc" came in the course of time to be pronounced as Daimoc or Damoc, the transition from which to Dimoc or Dymoc, and again from that to Dimock or Dymoke, is easy and obvious.
