Help[Surname] where does the surname Goris originate from???
Yes I have seen the reference to Goris, Armenia as well but have never heard it spoken of by any of my family or relatives. My Dad's family is from Belgium where I am told the name Goris is quite popular. Whether or not it originates from Belgium I am not sure. Would be interested to find out exactly where we originated and what our respective family trees look like!

Goris is indeed a Flemish name from Belgium. You'll find different proposed origins for it at tinyurl.com/y8hhjszs and an English translation of this at tinyurl.com/ybb9ln3p. The name is also Dutch and the proposed origin at tinyurl.com/y8s9ckyp is the Latin name Gregorius.
