ALLIBONE, ALLIBOND,
ALABONE, ALLABAND, ALLEBORN.
A baptismal name meaning "the son of Alban," or "Albon"; v. Allbon.
The i and a are intrusive for euphony, as in Greenaway,
Hathaway,
for Greenway
and Hathway; cf. Ottaway
for Ottway. The d in Allibond is excrescent; cf.
provincial gownd for gown, and v. Simmonds. A
book on the "Cure of Consumption" is advertized by the author, Edwin
W. Alabone, in the Weekly Pulpit for May 22, 1887. Allaband
and Alleborn are American variants.
