HINTON DAUBENEY or DAUBNAY in Catherington
Old English 'high farm', in an oblique case form. The place is on the western end of a ridge overlooking the source of the river Itchen near Cheriton.
'Daubeney' is from the surname d'Aubeney likely to derive from the village of 'Aubigny' near Falaise in Calvados, Normandy (though this place name, from hypothetical Romano British 'Albiniacum' is common in France).
