Paine

Paine is a Latin-originated name. This name is commonly used for both boys and girls. The meaning of Paine is 'villager' or a 'country-dweller'. The name was introduced to the British by the Normans. It is derived from the word 'Pagus', which means 'outlying village', which meant a person who first lived in the country, then a civilian as opposed to a soldier. This remained a popular name throughout the middle age but lost its importance in the 16th century. However, it gained importance again in recent times. Thomas Payne was a freeman and a founder of the large American Family. This also included Robert Treat Paine, who was one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. Thomas Paine, the writer of 'The Rights of Man' left England for North America. There, he was involved with the movement, which led to independence. This all shows how popular this name was among different cultures.
