Random information on the term “Guest”:

The surname Guest is derived from the Old English word giest, which in turn comes from the Old Norse word “gestr”, both of which mean “guest” or “stranger.” Spelling variations may include Gest, Geste, Gueste, Ghest, Geest, Geeste, Gist, Ghost, Jest. Other European counterparts to the name include the German and Dutch “Gast”, Luxembourgish “Gaascht”, Swedish “Gäst”, Norwegian “Gjest”, Serbian and Slovakian “Gost”, Czech “Host”, etc.

“Guest” derives from a place and not from the occupational status of some ancient forebear given to chronic visiting. Other theories suggest a spiritual concept i.e. “guests on this earth”, or a polite substitute for “serf”. Guest, the place, was near Caen, Normandy, and the original bearers of the name are said to have taken part in the Norman Conquest of England under William I in 1066. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Benwoldus Guest. This was dated 1100 in the Old English Names Register, during the reign of King William II of England, 1087–1100. After the conquest, the family settled in Salop (now Shropshire) in middle-western England and apparently held the estate known as Lega from the De Dunstanvilles. Some ancient land records show Alan De Guest granting the lands of Alric de Lega (Guest) to a monastery called Wembridge Priory in 1150. His son Thomas (a name which occurs frequently in the Guest line) is mentioned in 1180. Some of the other Guests of antiquity were Thomas’ sons Walter and Leonard, referred to in 1194 and 1280; and Henry, son of Leonard, 1240. Roger de Lega, or Guest, brother of Henry, had a son Thomas who again gave lands to Wembridge Priory. In 1295 Adam Gest (another variant of the name) was assessor of the parliamentary rolls in Salop.
