They decided to side with the Normans as they had more 'ferret friendly' policies than the Saxons or Danes.

Then after the war was won my ancestors were rewarded by having a prosperous town in Bedfordshire, South East England, named after their race and being given the title 'of ferrets'. Over the years that title simply merged into a surname such as Smith or Wright, and newborn ferrets were given Christian names as well. My parents were the ones who relinquished control of Ferret Town (as featured in the BC hotseat game - ask phonics or Ramses) in favour of settling down to a quiet life in a country manor. They named me 'Elite' in memory of the brave elite ferrets who performed a crucial role in conquering England from the weasels Saxons.

And that is where my name originates from
