In most records, Daniel is Daniel J. Lambert or Daniel Jackson Lambert. In some, he is Daniel L. Lambert. He was a son of Andrew Jackson "Jack" Lambert.

Among the Lamberts of Georgetown County, SC, a common custom was calling a man by his own given name followed by the name of his father.

Daniel's brother Samuel B. Lambert was called "Sam Jack." Even if Daniel's given middle name began with L., he may have been called "Dan'l Jack" among his acquaintances. Eventually, Daniel Jackson Lambert MAY have become the formal name of a once Daniel L. Lambert.

Another instance of the use of a patyonymic: Andrew Jackson Lambeth/Lambert's son Benjamin Franklin Lambert, Sr., was known to family and friends as "Ben Jack Lambert."

An extreme instance: two sons of a Lambert family remained in Georgetown and Williamsburg Counties after 1910, when their brothers had moved to Georgia. The two were known as Andrew Kinyon and John Kinyon. Because their nearest relatives had moved away, many folk in succeeding generations of neighbors thought the brothers' surname was Kinyon. Their patronymic was the local pronunciation of the given name of their father, Caanan Lambert. (Cain Lambert in some records).

The use of a patronymic was not universal among the Lamberts, but it was common. Sometimes it causes confusion for genealogists who are not aware of it.
