Hi, just found this thread.

I have seen comments on the web to the effect that the name is Nordic and came to Britain during the Viking onslaught. It arrived in Ireland first then made its way to Yorkshire. Someone named Hans-Erik commented that the name was common in his area of Sweden until about 200 years ago. As my people are Jubbs this interested me.

Cheers,
China
