Meaning & History

From Italian Buamundo, which is of uncertain meaning. According to the Norman historian Orderic Vitalis it was derived from Latin Buamundus, the name of a mythical Gigas (giant), originally given as a nickname to the crusader prince Bohemond I (christened Mark; c. 1058-1111) by his father because he was extremely large at birth.
