BEAUMAINS. French
Arthurian, meaning "beautiful hands," a name given to
Gareth by Sir Kay in ridicule of his large hands.
... Beaumains, according to Thomas
Malory in the Morte d'Arthur, the nickname given to Gareth by Sir
Kay. The entire legend of Gareth's first coming to Arthur's court,
being fed for a year in the royal kitchen and receiving the nickname is
probably a folk tale which had no connection with the Arthurian cycle
until Malory or some unknown writer before him adapted it from a French
source now lost. (Heroes and Heroines of Fiction, Walsh, 1915)
