One of these that includes other countries would be interesting because mine's actually from Pakistan.

:unsure:This may be because it is a very popular traveller's name.

I don't mean any offence by that and apologise in advance if you are offended, I am merely trying to give an explanation for your result.

I apologise for my post that seems to have started a bigoted exchange.

That was my fault, I'm very sorry.

Mines was pretty spot on. It annoys me when people think Urquhart is foreign

Closest notable place for my surname (Bainbridge) is Barnard Castle, which is 18 miles from where I live.

My maiden name was Bristol area (my paternal grandparents came from Wales so close enough).

My married name is the Midlands, and my Maternal grandparents name is also the Midlands, and i live in the Midlands, so very accurate for me :hee:

My surname came up as most commonly from around the Bristol area which I thought was interesting, I knew it wasn't a Scottish surname but I didn't know whereabouts in England it actually originated - though they have where I'm from as a medium result so it wasn't too far off; and my other family names were all pinpointed to the part of Scotland those family members are from so all round pretty good!
