creber

Creber is a surname of English origin. It is thought to be a topographical name, deriving from the Old English word "cræber," meaning a fisherman or fishmonger. Alternatively, it may be a habitational name from a place named Creber, though no such prominent location is widely known today. The name is most commonly found in Devon and Cornwall in England. Over time, the spelling of the surname has remained relatively consistent, though variations such as Cribber or Creberr may occasionally appear in historical records. As with many surnames, its dispersal throughout English-speaking countries is largely due to migration patterns over centuries.
