Attrill Surname Meaning
User-submitted Reference
This variant of the surname derives from the Isle of Wight. It is thought the most likely derivation is from the local word for a stream, which is a "rill". Therefore a person would be John At The Rill, or John At T'Rill, hence John Attrill.
There is also a very small hamlet in the centre of the Isle of Wight called Rill, so it could also be a possibility, but as it only has about 3 houses this seems unlikely. It would also be derived from "John At Rill" in this case, so there is a missing "t". The first explanation seems therefore the most likely.
