English
English : habitational name from any of various places, for example in Derbyshire, Dorset, and Suffolk, so called from Old English hol ‘hollow’, ‘sunken’ + brÅc ‘stream’. The name has probably absorbed the Dutch surname van Hoobroek, found in London in the early 17th century, and possibly a similar Low German surname (Holbrock or Halbrock). Several American bearers of the name in the 1880 census give their place of birth as Oldenburg or Hannover, Germany.This name was first taken to America by the brothers Thomas and John Holbrook, who emigrated to MA in the 17th century; their line can be traced back to Dundry, Somerset, England, in the first half of the 16th century. Other English bearers who started early lines of descent in the New World are Joseph Ho(u)lbrook of Warrington, Lancashire, who emigrated to MD as an indentured servant in the later 17th century; Randolph Holbrook, who was in VA in the 1720s but later returned to Nantwich, Cheshire; and Rev. John Holbrook, who emigrated from Handbury, Staffordshire, to NJ in about 1723. The spelling Haulbrook originated in GA in the 1870s, reflecting the southern U.S. pronunciation of the name.

English : habitational name from either of the places called Washington, in Tyne and Wear and West Sussex. The latter is from Old English WassingatÅ«n ‘settlement (Old English tÅ«n) of the people of Wassa’, a personal name that is probably a short form of some compound name such as WÄðsige, composed of the elements wÄð ‘hunt’ + sige ‘victory’. Washington in Tyne and Wear is from Old English WassingtÅ«n ‘settlement associated with Wassa’.George Washington (1732–99), 1st president of the U.S. (1789–97), was born at Bridges Creek, VA. His great-grandfather had settled in the colony after emigrating from England in 1658. With the passage of time, the surname has come to be borne by more African Americans than English Americans. A prominent example was the educator Booker T. Washington (1856–1915), born a slave in VA, who adopted his surname from his stepfather, Washington Ferguson.

English : habitational name from any of various places called Wallington. Those in Berkshire, Hampshire, and Greater London are probably all named from the genitive plural of Old English walh ‘foreigner’, ‘Briton’ (see Wallace) + tūn ‘enclosure’, ‘settlement’. One in Northumberland was originally Old English Wealingtūn ‘settlement associated with Wealh’, a personal name or byname. One in Hertfordshire was named as the ‘settlement of the people of Wændel’, an unattested Old English personal name, while one in Norfolk was probably the ‘settlement of the dwellers by the wall (Old English wall)’.
