Scotland / Re: Is "Meek" a nickname?

A rumour that I have seen is that the name comes from Old Norse, mjkr or mykr, meaning soft, gentle, and now related to muck & mucky.  The name is relatively common along the East of Great Britain, an area which historically traded with Europe and the Baltic- where the Vikings first arrived.
