Best Answer

The meaning of this phrase with the spelling of "manor" refers to a nobility of birth. In feudal England, the ruling nobility lived in the manor house, while the serfs or other peons did not. Hence, "to the manor born" refers to a noble, or "upper crust" birth and heritage.

There is a second derivation, "to the manner born," meaning that the particular behavior or way of speaking is common in the area in which one was born and one is accustomed to it. I think it could also refer to a gift or talent.
