The English surname Smith self-evidently comes from the occupation of blacksmith. When surnames became compulsory then Thomas the Smith would have called himself Thomas Smith because being the proud village blacksmith distinguished him from all the other villagers. Not surprisingly Smith is the commonest surname in England.
