Kragh

Kragh is a surname of Scandinavian origin. It is believed to derive from the Old Norse word "kráke," meaning "crow" or "raven."

Like many surnames, Kragh likely originated as a patronymic or a descriptor. Over time, it became a hereditary family name. Variations in spelling and pronunciation may exist across different regions and historical periods within Scandinavia and its diaspora. Individuals with the surname Kragh can be found in Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and among descendants who have emigrated to other parts of the world.
