Literally washed upon England's glittering shores amidst the veritable tidal wave of Immigration following the Norman Invasion of 1066 A.D, the ancient Anglo-Saxon surname of Harriman derives from either the Old French language word "hermant" or the Old German language words "hariman" or "hereman", which all mean "warrior". Some researchers say that this family name is first found in Suffolk, where they held a family seat, quite possibly long before 1066 A.D.
