A word appearing in the label of a heraldic devise G. Tram Nybol from the 1910s (PE13/94). The element G. tram means “bridge” (GL/71), but the meaning of the second element is unclear. Gilson, Welden, Hostetter and Wynne suggested it might be an adjectival form of G. nib “snow” (GL/60) and thus with the sense “*snowy”, but they also noted that this meaning seems inappropriate to the situation (PE13/94).
