It was named after a police lieutenant, a William Frank Peabody, an active dancer. ref Richard M. Stephenson, Complete Book of Ballroom Dancing 1992 ISBN 0385424167, Chapter History of Ballroom Dancing , section Peabody ref The dance was characteristic of its prevalent use of the Right Outside Partner position. This peculiarity is explained by the fact that Lt. Peabody was a man of considerable girth, so that for the freedom of movement he had to keep the lady to the side, rather than in front.
