At least that one works

My name essentially means "Junior" in Welsh.

mine is one of the most famous in irish history

There are currently no people watching this surname.

Not surprising. The 7(?) people I've found in US phone book directories are all known relatives.

My name is too boring to be worth looking up.

My surname: "it was originally a physical description of a person with a crooked back or limbs, or given the robust humour of the 12th century, the reverse!"

I just learned that the feminine version of my name is "Baxter".

Hmm, it is a directory now.

dad's side: strong, hardy, blah blah blah

mom's side: Irish: Anglicized form of Gaelic Ó Coileáin ‘descendant of Coileán’, a byname meaning ‘puppy’ or ‘young dog’.

OR

Irish: Anglicized form of Gaelic Ó Cuilinn ‘descendant of Cuileann’, a byname meaning ‘holly’.

my surname is def scottish and my moms maiden name is murphy. we like to drink.

well, i'm reckoning with some german/irish heritage, so yeah...the drink. pretty high up there as far as american mutt-dom goes, but

"The Coat of Arms most associated with the family name depicts a silver lion rampant within an orle of eight silver crosses crosslet on a blue shield."

Locational surname, Staffordshire or Warwickshire. Anglo Saxon.

i also gots this:
German and Jewish (Ashkenazic): occupational name for a shoemaker or cobbler, from Middle High German schuoch ‘shoe’ + würhte ‘maker’. The sound b was often substituted for v in eastern dialects of German.

So your last name is Covvler?

ha, no

my mom's maiden name is "Collins"

and regarding my last post, my great-grandmother always maintained that the "Schubert" came directly down from the composer

I'll report back after I write my first sonata

"Dell Covvler" sounds beautiful, though...

There are currently no people watching this surname.

^^ I got that too for both maiden and married names. The fomer is a rare German one and the later a rare Latvian one so I'm not too surprised. Have found some folks with my maiden name on Facebook but they all live in England via S. Africa.

My name is from the basque for "cold mountain". That's actually not bad.

"The WorldNames website is currently unavailable while we perform a major update."

Hopefully they'll update it so I can successfully perform one search. So far I've had no luck!

(German) Occupational - one who processed and sold salt.

my first name means "pure" and my maiden name means "god of war", so put that together.

C/Katherines represent.

C/Kathe/arin/yn/es

based on my personal experience, latvian ppl without exception are beautiful.

<3 basque names.

i am beautiful, there's no point being falsely modest about it.

LOL. I didn't see Dell's comment so I had no idea what you were on about for a second there. <3

Sorry we have yet to research the origin of the surname (mine)
