ARREND.
|
|
From
A Dictionary of English and Welsh Surnames, by C. W. E. Bardsley,
A. Bardsley, 1901.
|
|
ARON, ARREND.
A
baptismal name meaning "the son of
Aaron." Generally of Jewish descent, but not necessarily so in all
cases. Arran with an excrescent d, became Arrend; cf.
gownd for gown, or Simmonds
for Simmons. There can be no doubt about the fact that Arrend
is Aaron in
disguise.
