Answer 1

Here's two definitions I found for you...

1. according to legend she rode naked through Coventry in order to persuade her husband not to tax the townspeople so heavily; the only person to look at her as she rode by was a man named Tom and Peeping Tom has become a synonym for voyeur (circa 1040-1080) - Source: wordnet.princeton.edu/perl/webwn

2. (c. 980 – 1067) was an Anglo-Saxon lady, who, according to legend, rode naked through the streets of Coventry in England, in order to gain from her husband a remission of the oppressive toll imposed on his tenants. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_Godiva
