Where this word comes from
As a place name, probably from the otherwise unattested Old Norse *Deigaleimr, formed with heimr (“home, farm, settlement”). The first element is uncertain, but may be related to deigr (“soft”), perhaps referring to soft or marshy ground. The surname is derived from the place name. First attested in 1337 as Dæighalæims, followed by Dæigulæims in 1399.
