Facts About
Southern
Southern is thought to be a locational surname. Locational surnames were traditionally given to a newcomer in a town, where the name of their original place of residence would have been assigned to them as a surname to differentiate them. Instead of taking the name of their town, ‘Southern’ may have been given to a person who had moved north, describing the position of their old town. The name could however have been topographical and given to describe a person who lived at the furthest point south in a town or village. |
