Frude Surname Meaning

From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history

This surname is derived from the name of an ancestor. 'the son of Froud'. This name has troubled me much. There is not a trace of it in the Hundred Rolls and other contemporary records, so far as my researches have gone. Mr. Lower, however, has an important note upon it. 'The epithet trode, wise, was applied to more than one eminent Northman' (v. Laing's Chronicle of the Sea Kings of Norway). In Domesday we find a Frodo, described as 'frater Abbatis', (Bury St. Edmunds), and he had a son Gilbert, called filius Frodonis.' This is a satisfactory statement as far as it goes.
