Marley is an English-language surname with numerous etymological origins. In many cases, the surname is derived from any of several like-named placenames in England, such as those in Devon, Kent, Lancashire (''Mearley''), Sussex (''Marley Farm'') and West Yorkshire.〔〔 The placenames in Devon, Kent, and West Yorkshire are, in part, derived from the Old English element ''leah'', meaning "woodland clearing".〔. This webpage cites .〕 Early forms of the surname are ''de Merlai'', in about 1145-1165; ''de Mardele'', in 1208; ''de Marley'', in 1285; and ''de Marleye'', in 1306.〔.〕 In the 17th century, the surname was taken to Ireland by a family from Northumbria.〔 However, in some cases the surname in Ireland may be an Anglicised form of the Irish-language ''Ó Mearthaile''〔.〕 (another suggestion is ''Ó Mearlaigh''; it is unlikely to be an Anglicised form of ''Ó Murghaile'').〔.〕 Notable people with the surname include: *Bob Marley, Jamaican reggae musician Notable members of Bob Marley's family include: * *Rita Marley, singer * *Cedella Marley Booker, singer and writer, and mother of Bob Marley * *Cedella Marley, musician and clothing designer, daughter of Bob Marley * *Damian Marley, reggae musician * *Julian Marley, reggae musician * *Ky-Mani Marley, reggae musician * *Ziggy Marley, reggae musician * *Stephen Marley (musician), son of Bob Marley * *Rohan Marley, former pro football player * *Norval Marley, father of Bob Marley *Bert Marley, American politician from Idaho *Mickey Marley, a Northern Irish street entertainer *Stephen Marley (writer), British author and game designer Fictional characters: *Jacob Marley, fictional character in ''A Christmas Carol'' ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Marley (surname)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
