dbp:meaning
  • possibly a topographical name for a dweller by a mineral pool or, alternatively, the mount, hill, from the Old English element "munt", a mount, hill. However, the famous Historian A.L.Rowse, in his history of the Cornish in America, says the name Mounter comes from Polmounter and Pellymounter. The Pol and Pelly were dropped over the centuries. In G Pawley White's book 'Cornish Names' it is said the name comes from the words 'pol-mun-tyr' meaning 'pool by the mineral land' in the ancient Cornish language. This suggests that Mounteer may not be related to the name Mounter unless it also comes down from a Celtic name. (en)
