Jones, it's a popular Welsh surname derived from a corruption of Ioan, Sion or Ieuan. It's the second most numerous surname in the UK.

3. The progenitor of the name, Richard was a good friend of Robert Bruce and our family crest is a gauntlet with a dagger that represents Bruce stabbing a guy, when Richard said "Maun do it" which is our family motto and means "Must do it"

1) Simcox

2) I have no idea but upon googling my name, I came across a Grover Simcox, who is from Pennsylvania where my grandparents on my dad's side are from. He was born in the 1800's and was an artist. There was also another guy named Chris Simcox, who was the founder of some Minutemen Civil Defense Corps? I know he's not in my family lol.

I also found other things, like the simcox family crest, which is probably just a bunch of BS. Apparently the Simcox family is from the village of Simcoe...... It just smells like lies!

My last name is Smith. It also happens to be the most common name in the US.

its czech but i do not know if there is anything significant about it.. other than its pretty rare in the us.. if i google my last name the 11th entry returned is me.

Frozt

Unknown

Many thousands of years ago, a young, nameless prince wandered the world in search of a name. His epic journey took him up mountains, through deserts, over seas and through deserted kingdoms for many years, with none to accompany him on his lonely search but his faithful horse. One day, when the unnamed prince had reached the end of his road, and was near to giving up, he looked up at the starry sky and saw the word "Kadamadaguuri" repeated over and over, and when he woke up, he had a name: Prince Kadamadaguuri, which now translates to "Frozt."

He ate the horse and went home and died.
