Re: The Surname "Briefman"
Your surname is probably of Dutch origin, as "brief" means 'letter' and "man" means 'man' in Dutch. It's also possible that your surname is of German origin, then the original variant should've been spelled Briefmann.

I think that 'briefman' is probably a nickname for a postman.
