Notes
a. Note:   Brown English: generally a nickname, ME brun, le brun, from OE brun or OF brun (both of Gmc origin; cf. OHG brun), referring to the colour of the hair, complexion, or clothing. It may occasionally be from a personal name, OE Brun or ON Br�ni, with the same origin. Brun- was also a Gmc name-forming element; some instances of OE Brun may therefore be short forms of cpd names such as Brungar, Brunwine, etc. The Ger. cogns. are associated with the much more common Continental personal name Bruno, which was borne by the Dukes of Saxony, among others, from the 10th cent. or before. It was also the name of several medieval German and Italian saints, including the founder of the Carthusian order (1030-1101), who was born in Cologne. Brown also occurs as an Anglicization of some Jewish names, including compounds, and of names in other langs. meaning �Brown�. http://www.ancestry.com/search/nameorigin.aspx?ln=brown&fn=
