Latymer
Latymer (also Latimer, Lattemore and Lattimore) is an uncommon English surname. It is a "surname of office" derived from latinier, or latimer, a speaker or writer of Latin, and since in Middle English leden meant "language", an interpreter. This occupation existed in medieval Europe when Latin was the common language of science, literature, law, and administration and thus the vehicle of records and transcripts.
