23、e name earned his living, or like Johnson and Nixon, they can mean “son of“ a particular person.Another group of surnames describes what the first person to bear the name looked like, or comments on some aspects of his personality.

26、plimentary are names like Goodfellow, for a popular man, and Jolly, for someone who laughed a great deal.The modern form of a surname may be rather misleading, having changed its spelling or its meaning.
