ElwellEnglish Means "person from Elwell", Dorset (probably "spring from which omens can be read").

OkumuşTurkish Means "educated, well-read" in Turkish.
ReidheadEnglish The origins of the Reidhead surname are uncertain. In some instances, it was no doubt derived from the Old English word "read," meaning "red," and was a nickname that came to be a surname. Either way, we may conclude that it meant "red-haired" or "ruddy complexioned."
