Tim Synge: Old English spelling of the word "sing". King Henry VIII bestowed the name on a royal chorister who had a very good singing voice, and that's how it began. (Serious answer, by the way, just in case it's becoming hard to tell the difference.) And I believe that one of the big maths department mainframes in the University of Toronto was called "synge" after John Lighton Synge, a pre-eminent mathematician.
