Meaning & History
Dutch form of François. In Dutch, fransoos (same etymology) also means "Frenchman". It's actually a mild ethnic slur, which is why the name Fransoos eventually fell out of use (sometime in the early 20th century).A known bearer of this name was the Dutch war criminal Fransoos "Frans" Lammers (1899-1971).
