Facts About
Smart
This name has been recorded as both Smart and Smartman and comes from the medieval name which was often given as a nickname to brisk and active people. It derives from the Old English word ‘smeart’ which means quick. However, it could also have been as an occupational name for people who worked like our modern day handy men.
