The earliest known ancestor--William Wyot--was recorded in 1274. The family motto is Duriora virtus which means "Virtue tries harder things."
Other spellings include "Wyat." Notable people with the surname include British director Rise of the Planet of the Apes, The Escapist, Get the Picture, American actress Jane Wyatt (Father Knows Best, Lost Horizon, Gentleman's Agreement), and American football player Justin Wyatt (Arizona Cardinals). The first Wyatts to come to America were Sir Francis and Lady Margaret Wyatt in Virginia in 1621.
