Facts About
Browne
This Old English surname comes from the word ‘brun’ and was originally given to people with either brown hair or complexions. It was also given to those who were known for wearing brown clothing such as those in tribes or for a nationalistic reason, such as referring to holy order and it was considered a uniform. The name Brun became a popular baptismal name throughout Britain and therefore can be found in the 1086 Doomsday Book. |
