A silly Jeep question

[David_Hayward (RIP)]

On the Isle of Man in the Irish Sea in the Paris of Kirk German is an area:

Creg Willy Syl. :
‘Willy Syl's (Sylvester) crag.' Usually rendered Creg Willys Hill. v. Bill Syl's meadow.

Willy and Bill are short for William, or Guillaume from whence it came, and Willis, Wyllys, Willys are possessives thereof. Probably Wills as well, as in the cigarette company family.

And getting more on track, "Bantam" as in American Bantam Car Company of Butler, Pennsylvania, who produced the little Austin Seven under licence/license, produced their stab at the military utility. The word "Bantam" means of course a small breed of chicken....so that explains the connection.
