Stitt Name Meaning
Scottish (Dumfriesshire) and English: possibly in some instances from Scots steet ‘prop support’ a variant of stut which is also recorded in this sense from northern England (compare Stant ). Alternatively there is Old Norse stytti which is found in the same sense as stytting ‘shortening; shortness unfriendliness’ and may be the source of a lost English or Scots word.
