Where did the surname Arrington originate?
Family names ending in "-ington" are English and mildly classy in England. I found the following accounts posted on the Arrington Family Genealogical Forum at http://genforum.genealogy.com/arrington/ "THE SURNAME 'ARRINGTON' "The surname Arrington has been said in family folklore to be of German origin. How this tale began I am unsure but I am sure that the name Arrington is of English origin. "English surnames began in the middle ages when it was common to identify one with an area from which they came. For example; my name is Richard and I am from Franklin County therefore I might be referred to as Richard of Franklin. As years passed the 'of' was dropped and in the above example I would then become known as Richard Franklin. This is how the Arrington name came into existence in England. "The name is said to have originally been "Ermington" and eventually changed, in England, to Arrington. "The township of Arrington is located ten miles southwest of Cambridgeshire England. Also located in the township is the landowners manor." And then there was this brief account: "The earliest recorded use of the Arrington surname was in a document in London, England in 1273. During research one might find the Arrington surname spelled in a variety of ways. I observed it spelled as Arington, Earington, Arenton, Arrinton, Arrendon and etc.. When I found the name spelled in a way other than our common spelling I researched further to ensure the subject was indeed an Arrington. The early records in the United States were generally written phonetically and so often a variety of spellings were prevalent."
