The last name Marquis has French origins, derived from the title "marquis," which historically denoted a nobleman ranking above a count but below a duke. It was often used to describe someone who governed a border territory or march. The name may also have been adopted by families who held this title or were associated with the nobility. Over time, it spread beyond France and can now be found in various cultures.
