Anderson is asurname deriving from apatronymic meaning "son ofAnder/Andrew" (itself derived from the Greek name "Andreas", meaning "man" or "manly").

In Scotland, the name first appeared in records of the 14th century as "Fitz Andreu" (meaning son of Andrew), and developed in various forms by theScottish Gaelic patronymic of "MacGhilleAndrais" which means "servant ofSt. Andrew". Variations of this name were MacAndrew, Gillanders and Anderson. The name soon migrated to other parts of Scotland due to the popularity of the name "Andrew" as associated with the Patron Saint of Scotland, and the largest grouping lies in the north-east of Scotland from the Mearns through Aberdeenshire, Banff, and Moray.[citation needed]

In England, the first recorded spelling of the family name is probably that of William Andreu, which was dated 1237, in the ancient charters of the county ofBuckinghamshire, England, in the year 1237.[citation needed]

Anderson is the eighth most frequent surname in Scotland and 52nd most common in England.[1]

In Sweden, the formAndersson is the most common surname along with Johansson.[2]

In Norway and Denmark, the formAndersen is quite common, being the fifth most commonsurname in both countries.[3][4] The name is also found to a lesser extent in northern Germany, e.g. the German vocalistLale Andersen (1905–1972).[5]

The Scandinavian formsAndersson andAndersen were often rendered asAnderson by immigrants to the English-speaking countries, whereby the latter form became one of the most common surnames inAnglophone North America. The name was the eleventh most common surname reported in the 1990 United States census, accounting for 0.3% of the population.[6] It was the twelfth most common surname reported in the 2000 United States Census.[7] Anderson is also one of the most popular surnames in Canada.[8]
