THE ABBOTT FAMILY TREE

In the British Isles, surnames were primarily based on either the first name of the father; the name of the locality where the family originated; the name of an occupation, or a name that describes a person's physical appearance, or personality.

The origin of the surname Abbott is from the Old English, taken to designate that the calling of the bearer is that of an abbot. The surname Abbott is found mostly in the British Isles. British surnames were in common usage by the mid 1200's. The diversity of linguistic roots for British surnames reflects the history of Britain, including Old English, Middle English, Old French, Old Norse, Irish, Gaelic, Celtic, Pictish, Welsh, Gaulish, Germanic, Latin, Greek and Hebrew.
