All Barons in the part of the English speaking world where titles of nobility are permitted have surnames now. Hundreds of years ago, they would not have had surnames, but would have simply been Baron of a particular place or region.


It may be useful to recognize that "Baron" is now also a surname in its own right. When used as a surname, there is no suggestion of nobility.
