Lockards

Part of speech: noun

Definitions

1. A family name of English origin, or the people who carry that surname collectively
2. A surname shared by a family or group of people, used as a name for individuals bearing it
3. Used as a family name, referring to several people or households who share this surname

Etymology: "Lockards" is simply the plural of "Lockard," so the word is a family name used in the plural, as in "the Lockards" for a household or extended kin sharing that surname. The singular "Lockard" is a surname of English-speaking families, and the plural follows the ordinary English pattern of adding "-s" to refer to everyone who bears it. Nothing about the plural form changes the sense of the name itself, which is why the same spelling appears whether one person or a whole family is meant.

Synonyms: sluggard, idler, loafer, slacker
