Thanks for the information. That is very interesting and makes sense. That would be pretty funny to have a last name that means a fat and lumpy person.

I also found this ...

Dutch (Smar): perhaps from a reduced form of Sigmar, a Germanic personal name composed of the elements sigi ‘victory’ + meri, mari ‘famous’.
