Is the surname Goranson by any chance based on the Old English Gore, "a triangular plot of land"? I know the suffix "son" means "son of", but other than that I don't know.

Is it true that Klarich means "clear"? I don't remember exactly what language it was - I think it might have been Croatian that he claimed it was from. So I was wondering if anyone knew.

In addition, does Toop mean "drunk"? I have a friend who did some research on the name and says it means "drunk" or "a drunkard" in German, I think. So I was wondering if that was true.

I'm really curious about these - so thanks if you can help! :)
