English
English : topographic name for someone living by a pointed hill (or regional name from the Peak District (Old English Pēaclond) in Derbyshire), named with Old English pēac ‘peak’, ‘pointed hill’ (found only in place names). This word is not directly related to Old English pīc ‘point’, ‘pointed hill’, which yielded Pike; there is, however, some evidence of confusion between the two surnames.Possibly also Irish : reduced form of McPeak.Major concentrations of the surname Peak are found in Staffordshire and the West Country of England. Among the earliest known bearers are Richard del Pech or del Pek (d. 1196), son of Rannulf, sheriff of Nottingham, and Willielmus Piec (Winchester 1194). A century later, c.1284, a certain Richard del Peke settled in Denbighshire (now part of Clwyd), Wales, receiving lands from Henry de Lacey, earl of Lincoln, in return for helping to control the region. His descendants, who bear the name Peak(e), can be traced to the present day, and are found in New Zealand and Canada as well as in Britain. Peake is also the name of a family descended from John Pyke, who paid rent to the abbot of Leicester in 1477. The name took various forms, such as Peke and Pick, eventually becoming established as Peak in the 17th century.

Surname or Lastname
English (Yorkshire)
English (Yorkshire) : habitational name from a place in Yorkshire, recorded in Domesday Book as Schipwic, from Old English scēap, scīp ‘sheep’ + wīc ‘outlying settlement’. Under later Scandinavian influence the initial ‘s’ became ‘sk’ and the second element was changed to -with (Old Norse viðr ‘wood’).The main Skipwith family held the manor of Skipwith in England in the early Middle Ages, and direct descendants can be traced to the present day. In the 13th century they moved from Yorkshire to Lincolnshire, where their principal seat was at southern Ormsby. In the early 17th century there was further migration, to Leicestershire, Warwickshire, and across the Atlantic to VA. Other bearers of the name seem to have been tenants of Lincolnshire manors held by the Skipworth family, and to have taken the surname of their overlords.
