Orange Surname Meaning

From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history

(English, French) One who came from Orange (town on the river Araise), in France.

Dictionary of American Family Names (1956) by Elsdon Coles Smith

A William de Orenge is a Domesday tenant in co. Bucks. Whence this "William of Orange" came, I cannot guess; certainly not, I should say, from the district from which his great namesake, some six hundred years later, originally had his title, that being a small town and ancient principality in the South of France, about twenty miles from Avignon, and formerly a dependency of Holland.

Patronymica Britannica (1860) by Mark Antony Lower

From Orange, a town of France, dep. Vaucluse, which derived its name from L. Araüsio Cavarum; from the people called the Cavarii. It was long the capital of a principality, which gave title to the family now on the throne of Holland. The King of the Netherlands still retains the title of Prince of Orange; bat the town and territory were ceded to Louis XIV. at the peace of Utrecht.

Ludus Patronymicus (1868) by Richard Stephen Charnock

William, Walter, Ralph, John Orenge, Normandy 1180-95 (Magni Rotuli Scaccarii Normanniae); William de Orenge, of Bucks 1086 (Domesd.). William de O. held in Bedford 1165 (Lib. Niger).
