[Facts] Etymology of LAST names
Is there a Web site or other resource I can use to trace the etymology of last names? I want to be able to identify the ethnic, national or cultural origin of a person's surname.
By the way, I learned about this site from the New York Times "Circuits" section. It's fascinating!
