The name Morgan

Usually Vivian is able to choose a name for a Hattingdon hat right away. This time it was a bit different. Finally, the name “Morgan” suddenly popped in her head. She thought . . . yes! Vivian knew it was a Welsh name, being from the UK. Look what it means.

Very Well Family tell us:

Open quote in Hattingdon brown.

The name Morgan means “sea-born,” “sea-song,” or “sea-circle.” It is traditionally a boy’s name of Welsh origin, and more specifically, a variant of the Old Welsh name Morcant which is a combination of the Welsh elements mor, meaning “sea” and cant, meaning “circle.”

Perfect. Serendipity at work.

Shiver me timbers

Ever wonder where that expression comes from? We did too. Look.

Open quote in Hattingdon brown.

In heavy seas, ships would be lifted up and pounded down so hard as to “shiver” the timbers, startling the sailors. Such an exclamation was meant to convey a feeling of fear and awe, similar to, “Well, blow me down!”, or, “May God strike me alive and well”. Source »

See you again soon.

Hello and welcome. We are happy to see you.

We especially love the “Anita” Hattingdon trio, so we are sharing the design here to bring you a “hatful of smiles”. Let’s go!

Anita in Black.
Anita in Blue.

The colour combination in this Anita design is chic and oh so fun.

Anita Multi.

Can you believe the Anita design was created as long ago as 2012? It looks as fresh and charming as ever, don’t you think? We hope you enjoyed seeing it.

Love, Hattingdon.

Hello. Happy Friday!

Vivian is experimenting with art posters for Hattingdon, and beginning to generate some interest for them.

Just for fun, she created a multi image poster using the Splash hat design in nine colors, adding a border to see what it would look like framed. What do you think?
