Warden sb.2 Forms: 5 wardun, -one, -oun, -ane, 5–6 wardyn (6 -in), 5–7 wardon, 6 wardayne, -eine, -eyne, 5– warden. [Of obscure origin.

1   Perh. a. AF. *wardon f. ward-er = F. garder to keep. Palsgrave, 1530, renders wardon by poire de garde (= keeping pear). As the arms of Wardon or Warden Abbey (Beds) were ‘Argent, three warden pears or,’ it has been conjectured that the pear derived its name from the abbey. There can be little doubt, however, that the arms were devised with punning intention.]
