Facts About
Thorne
This surname could have been given on a purely locational basis to those who lived in areas of the same name such as Thorne in Somerset or West Yorkshire, which were both documented as Torne in the 1086 Doomsday Book. However, the name could also have come from the Old English ‘thorn’ which meant thorn bush and therefore given to people who lived in areas full of thorn bushes. |
