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.
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.
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.
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).
