Andrerss

Andrerss is a surname of Scandinavian origin. It is a patronymic, meaning it derives from a given name, in this case, likely "Anders." Anders itself is a variant of the Greek name Andreas, which translates to "manly" or "brave." Therefore, Andrerss essentially means "son of Anders."

Variations of the surname may exist due to regional dialects, historical transcription differences, or emigration to countries with different naming conventions. However, Andrerss remains a distinct and recognizable form. Individuals bearing the surname Andrerss can be found in various professions and walks of life throughout the world, contributing to diverse communities. Its historical roots are tied to the strong tradition of patronymic naming within Scandinavian culture.
