Consistant with the fact that the first appearance of the name Fortescue is as a surname.Sir Fortescue.It was very common to name children after a patron or friend.
Fortescue had a son named Fortescue. His grandson Francis named a son Fortescue and later there was a younger male, same family named Fortescue. The last I have seen the name was a teacher in Loudoun Co, VA named Fortescue (late 19th century.)
Fortescue Whittle is my g-g-grandfather.
