Borrer Surname Meaning
From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
This surname is derived from an official title. ; v. Bower.
This name appears in Sussex from the XV. cent. under the forms of Bourer, Boorer, Borer and Borrer, the extra ' R' being a somewhat recent addition These, together with the Atte-Bore, Atte-Bowre, de la Bore, Boreman, and other modifications, are probably derivable from the Anglo-Saxon bur, a bower, inner room, or bed-chamber. Every baronial residence had its ' Ladye's Bower,' and the original Atte Bore, or De la Bore, (subsequently modified to Borer,) was probably the chamberlain of a great feudal household. This supposition is strongly supported by the Anglo-Saxon name for chamberlain, which is ' bur-tliegn ' bower-thane-one who was admitted to the private apartments and councils of the lord.
(Saxon and German) A countryman or farmer.
