The surname Keats is believed to have originated with the Anglo Saxon culture, perhaps from the old English word cyta or cyte, a worker at the shed, or an outhouse for animals, hence herdsman. It can also be attributed to the Middle English word kete or kyte (the bird) from greed or rapacity.[citation needed]
The family name Keats emerged as a notable family name in the county of Devonshire, where they were recorded as a family of great antiquity seated at Kitts, and they were the lords of the manor and of now extinct baronets. They also branched into Berkshire and Gloucestershire. The Keats coat of arms is a silver shield overlaid with three dark silver mountain cats beneath an Armet and embroidered with vines and leaves of alternating colours of red and silver.[citation needed]
