*A patronymic surname is a surname originated from the given name of the father. | |||
<br> | <br> | ||
Patronymic names changed with each generation. A patronymic surname is derived from the personal name (occasionally the occupation) of a person’s father, or sometimes mother or other relative. A typical English patronymic is Johnson (John’s son) which can be shortened with the genitive ‘s’ to Johns. The -son form was more common in northern England. The -s form was preferred in south and central England, hence the proximity of Wales to these areas influenced the type of many Welsh patronymics. For a more detailed look at English patronymics, see [[England Patronymic Surnames - International Institute|England Patronymic Surnames - International Institute.]] | |||
