The proud and noble English surname of Stough originated during the ancient times when the mighty Anglo-Saxon tribes ruled all of Britain. The surname would have been originally bestowed upon a family living near a place named "stow", meaning "place" or "holy place". In Worcestershire, the surname infers family residence near a church, or a monastery.
