Best Answer

My last name is Van De Vyvere (nee Trabue), which is close to the spelling of the name (van der vyver) prefaced in the question. I was told by Customs at the airport in Amsterdam in August 1997 that it means, "from the pond" and is very common, like Smith in the US. My husband said his paternal grandfather immigrated from Belgium to the US in the 1890's. Interestingly, there is a town called Vyvere in Belgium.
