Yes, of course it was consciously referring to race, even as a joke. I wrote about Bloomsbury and race in my article "Bushmen and Blackface," and gave a plenary talk on it at one of the VW conferences.

    When Stuart first sent this email, the subject line made me gasp. It was
    too close to the racial slur. Which made me wonder: might Lord Cecil's
    nickname be connected to the racial slur? Given the frequency of references
    to "n*** brown" as a descriptor of clothing in the teens, twenties, and
    thirties, I think it might. I looked in the OED, and yes, "nig" is short
    for the racial slur:
    nig, n.3
    [...]
    *colloq.* and *regional* (usually *derogatory* and *offensive*).
    Thesaurus ?
    Categories ?

      = nigger n.

       (in various senses).
    *c*1832   T. D. Rice *Jim Crow* x   De Nigs in ole Virginny Be so black dey
    shine.
    1840   *Daily Picayune (New Orleans) *20 Sept. 2/2   Two little nigs..had a
    most scientific set-to at the corner.
    1860   R. F. Burton *Lake Regions Central Afr.* I. 137   He resents..the
    name of ?Nigger?, or ?Nig??Jupiter Tonans has heard of the offensive
    dissyllable..but has he heard of the more offensive monosyllable which was
    forced upon the abbreviating Anglo-Saxon by the fatal necessity of
    requiring to repeat the word so frequently?
    1879   Mrs. A. G. F. E. James *Indian Househ. Managem.* 43   Treat your
    servants as fellow-creatures, not as ?nigs??a term too often applied..to
    the Indian natives.
    1916   J. B. Cooper *Coo-oo-ee* xvi. 245   He never wipes the glass
    slobbered over by dozens of dirty nigs!

    As to why Lord Cecil might have that nickname, short of consulting the full
    bio, I can only conjecture. Was he darker complected than his family
    members? Was it because of his colonial work in Egypt? Or, like lots of
    nicknames, did it come from some more obscure bit of personal history.

    In any case, watching this conversation unfold simultaneously with some
    pretty sorry racial incidents of blackface here in the U.S. and it struck
    me that it would be disingenuous to pretend that Lord Cecil's nickname,
    Nigs, was unconnected to the history of racism.

    Ref. to Lord Edward Cecil, L1 189.  For anything to do with the aristocracy & VW, it?s worth starting with a rarely referenced, but excellent book, RUDIKOFF, Sonya, "Ancestral Houses: Virginia Woolf and the Aristocracy" (1999).

    Making the grenadier connection is even more persuasive.  I think we might be able to search VW?s connections to the Cecils to find how close (as it were) she ever got to Lord Edward. Kitty Maxse?s husband Leo was a brother of Lady Violet, Lord Edward?s wife.

    Stuart:

    Thank you for your illuminating (and, to me, very persuasive) information on Lord Edward Cecil and Edward Pargiter of The Years.

    Your reference to Lord Cecil and the Grenadier Guards makes me wish to add that I believe Woolf associated Kitty Malone in The Years with Sir Walter Scott (Woolf's own diary "father").  Kitty's married name is Lasswade (name of Scott's home) and she much prefers the north over Oxford and London.  Kitty is call "The Grenadier."  In the British Army, a grenadier was a member of the first regiment of household infantry.  Grenadiers were specially selected foot soldiers in elite units who threw grenades.  Thus Woolf links Kitty to both Scott and to female household battle.

    Hope this adds.  No doubt you can add more to this.

    You will recall that that?s Eleanor?s nickname for Edward Pargiter in ?The Years? (mentioned 4 times).  Apparently, that was VWS and HN?s name for Nigel (see CUP edn 420 39:13).  But why should that be a nickname for *Edward*?

    I?ve found a more persuasive inspiration for the nickname.  The family called Lord Edward Cecil, Nigs, although I don?t know why.  Perhaps if I looked up a biography, I would find out.  Anyway, see here from the ODNB:

    Cecil, Lord Edward Herbert Gascoyne- (1867?1918), army officer and administrator, was born in London on 12 July 1867, the fourth son and sixth of eight children of Robert Arthur Talbot Gascoyne-Cecil, third marquess of Salisbury (1830?1903)<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Furldefense.proofpoint.com%2Fv2%2Furl%3Fu%3Dhttp-3A__www.oxforddnb.com_documentId_odnb-2D9780198614128-2De-2D32339%26d%3DDwMF-g%26c%3DaqMfXOEvEJQh2iQMCb7Wy8l0sPnURkcqADc2guUW8IM%26r%3Dk1OoytuRmrU4MiIwbI-7ElFohPGR5Vr0JxDyMjG9DsI%26m%3DqyC0djSWGOis3bIRcrZ5AQTDuN0kuzUn86jxKSbvXVU%26s%3D_Dm347sgnWdyczaPMUmROSSnrAT212c-y14fJSB-GsM%26e&data=02%7C01%7Cneverowv1%40southernct.edu%7C22a45306db0e43b29d4c08d68eb1b997%7C58736863d60e40ce95c60723c7eaaf67%7C0%7C0%7C636853291305225159&sdata=%2F0XvJNh2xuaMzINrlfg1MJKlJxeYe3JgI%2FHMZROTpJw%3D&reserved=0=>, prime minister, and his wife, Georgina Caroline (1827?1899), daughter of Sir Edward Hall Alderson and his wife, Georgina Drewe. Known to his family as Nigs, and to friends as Ned, Edward Cecil was educated privately and at Eton College, and was commissioned in the Grenadier Guards in 1887.
