Meaning of Last Name
Read is a surname of English origins, its most likely derivation is from the Anglo-Saxon (Old English) term for the colour red (rēad). The English town of Reading on the River Thames derives its name from a very early English tribal or community group called the Readingas. The Readingas appear to have been named after a chieftain called Reada, "The Red One," with the addition of the element -ingas meaning "the people of." There is a settlement in Lancashire called Read, the name deriving from an Old English term meaning roe[deer]-headland, this may also account for some Read surnames. The earliest recorded use of the name is that of a Leofwine se Reade (Leofwine the Red) dating to 1016. However, this usage would have been as a descriptive by-name as inherited family surnames had not yet become established. A Thomas Read is recorded in 1327; his use of the name Read would have been as a heritable surname. This name is included in the names of the following articles:
