Tickle Family History
Tickle Name Meaning
English (Lancashire and Cheshire): habitational name from Tickhill in South Yorkshire so named from the Old English personal name or byname Tica (of uncertain origin) or ticce(n) ‘kid’ + hyll ‘hill’. Perhaps also from an unrecorded Middle English personal name Tikel (Old English Ticol perhaps a pet form of Tica). Probably an altered form of German Tickel from a pet form of Dick from an ancient Germanic personal name formed with Old High German diot ‘people’ (see for example Dietrich ).
