Best Answer

The surname Dennis is English from the medieval personal name Den(n)is (Latin Dionysius, Greek Dionysios'(follower) of Dionysos'. St Denis, the martyred 3rd-century bishop of Paris became the patron of France. The popularity of the name in England from the 12th century on seems to have been largely due to French influence.
