Field is an English name from Yorkshire, England, where the family held a seat. It comes from the Old English word feld which means "pasture" or "open country." The earliest known ancestor--Robert de Felde--was recorded in 1185. Roots for this name can also be found in Ireland. The family motto is Nil agit, litem quod lite resolvit which means "He does no good, because he settles strife by strife."
