Surnames can mean many different things. With Great Britain it is most often associated with the family business, wainwrights build and repair wagons, wheelwrights make and repair wheeled vehicles, shipleys or shibleys are shipbuilders. Hispanic or Latino names often use de, meaning from. Notable actresses would be Cote de Pablo and Alana de La Garza, one from Pablo and one from La Garza. Arabic names with Ibn, bin, or al translate to “son of” and can indicate family, tribe(clan), or geographic locations.
