ridiculous
The last name "Hall" doesn't mean "Kind" or "friendly" and can't be attributed to Viking origins. The idea that the English (of all people and this is an English surname) would ever think that the Vikings who raped, plundered and pillaged England for years would treat anyone with kindness and friendliness within in their houses, as the article states is completely absurd. The citation for this claim is from some online family crest website which is not a reference from any scholarly source. Which is one of Wikipedia's big problems. And that is the complete lack of citations OR citing sources that are really dubious. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.138.89.132 (talk) 06:15, 10 May 2018 (UTC)
