Uusitalo Surname Meaning

User-submitted Reference

The Uusitalo surname means 'new house'. It is a typically Western Finnish surname. Unlike in Eastern Finland, which has a very old tradition of surnames among the common people, Western Finland for a long time used patronymics and personal bynames. When surnames became more common and eventually mandated by law in the later half of the 19th century, many Western Finnish families took the name of their farm as their surname. Thus, Uusitalo, meaning 'new house', is a relatively generic surname with multiple points of origin in Western Finland.
