| Surname Origin:
Scottish Scottish and northern Irish: variant of Moffatt; habitational name from Moffat in Dumfriesshire, named in Gaelic as ‘the long plain’, from magh ‘plain’ + fada ‘long’.
The surname Moffitt was first used in the Scottish/English Borderlands by an ancient
Scottish people called the Strathclyde-Britons. It was a name for someone who lived in the place called Moffatt, in Scotland.
The place-name is derived from the Gaelic words magh and fada, which mean field and long. Hence, the surname Moffitt means,
from the long field. First found in Dumfriesshire where they were seated from early times and their first records appeared on the census rolls taken by the ancient Kings of Scotland to determine the rate of taxation of their subjects.

| Surname Origin:
German The German family Sigman originally made their home in Swabia, the modern region of Baden-Wurttemberg. The name means "son of Sieg," which is a diminutive of several personal names derived from the Old High German word "Sigu," meaning "victory," such as Siegfried, Siefmunt, and Siegbert. Spelling variations include: Siegman, Siegmann, Sigman, Siegeman, Siegemann and many more. First found in Hopferstadt, Franconia, where Conrad Sigeman, the earliest recorded bearer of the name, was living in 1383. Some of the first settlers of this name or some of its variants were: Christoph Sigman, who settled in Philadelphia in 1738; Christoph Siegmann, a Hessian mercenary who settled in America after fighting in the Revolutionary War, Frederick Siegmann, who immigrated to Philadelphia in 1785.
