There is another telling difference between the old and the new rulers of England, Anglo-Saxons didn't use surnames. They were Cedric or Edgar of somewhere or other. But the Normans incorporated places into their own names like an act of possession. They were Roger of the beautiful hill - Roger Beau-Mont - because the place was theirs and they owned it lock, stock and barrel. In fact, preserving the estate intact was what the Norman nobility was all about. It was they who introduced the practise of passing on whole estates intact to one heir, to the eldest son.比起诺曼人建造的大多数巨大的罗马式大教堂与撒克逊人狭小的教堂截然不同，另一迥然不同之处在于，英格兰新老统治者之间。盎格鲁撒克逊人没有姓，有些地方叫做塞德里克或埃德加的不在少数。诺曼人便把地名加入了他们的名字中，就像是某种所有权，比如"峻山上的罗杰"，就如这些地方是属于他们的，完全属于他们。事实上，原封不动的保存建筑物，是诺曼人高尚品质的最佳体现，正是他们引入了这项制度，将整个建筑物原封不动地传给作为继承人的长子。
