Discussion of the name
Trumwine is an Old English masculine name comprising the elements trum ‘firm, strong, vigorous, trustworthy’ and wine ‘friend, protector, lord’.The only entries in the PASE corpus are for Trumwine 1, who in the late seventh century served briefly as bishop to the Picts (Bede: HE iv 12, iv 26), and for Trumwine 2, a catch-all category for occurrences in DB, although von Feilitzen (1937: 388) notes an instance from Norfolk in c.1089; nonetheless, the name was clearly extremely rare.
