Saint-Martin-d'Aubigny (French pronunciation: [sɛ̃ maʁtɛ̃ dobiɲi]) is a commune in the Manche department in Normandy in north-western France.[3]

History

The name of Aubigny is mentioned under diverse forms in Medieval Latin and in Old French : Albignio (11th century); Albigneio (ab. 1175); Aubigni (ab 1180). Its original form was *Albiniācum, a Romanization of the name of an earlier Gallo-Roman property (suffix -(i)acum < Gaulish Celtic -ako) + the personal name of its owner, a certain Albinius, Latin personal name popular in Gaul at that time.[4]
