place of residence, or some particular thing or event
that related to the person; thus, Edmund Ironsides;
Robert Smith, or the smith; William Turner. Surnames
are often also patronymics; as, John Johnson.

surname, Coriolanus." --Shak.
[1913 Webster]
Note: This word has been sometimes written sirname, as if it
signified sire-name, or the name derived from one's
father.
