It also can be grammatical form of буря (burya) "storm".

https://forebears.io/surnames/bure - i do not often use forebears because it has errors, but shows bearers in russia, many in and around bashkortostan but also elsewhere

UPDATE
Ridni is back: https://ridni.org/karta/%D0%B1%D1%83%D1%80%D0%B5
Only 8 in Ukraine. Usually this means that it is either very rare Russian surname or it is not Russian and it is Central Asian / Siberian (etc).

I think it can be said that it is different than Swedish surname.

Yes, the surname Bure can be of Russian origin. While the name can also be found in other countries, including Sweden and Scotland, the Bure family has a significant presence and history in Russia, particularly with notable figures like Pavel and Valeri Bure, who are Russian hockey players. The Bure family name is associated with a noble history in Russia, with ancestors who crafted watches for the Russian tsars.

Noble History: The Bure family, including Valeri Bure's family, has a connection to Russian nobility, stemming from their craftsmanship of watches for the tsars.
