Waller Coat of Arms

The surname Waller has its roots in Ireland and has a rich history that dates back several centuries. The name is derived from the Old English word "weallere," which means "foreigner" or "stranger." It was commonly used to refer to individuals who were not native to the area. During the medieval period, Ireland witnessed numerous invasions and migrations, resulting in the intermingling of different cultures and ethnicities. As a result, many Irish families adopted surnames to differentiate themselves from the rest of the population. The Waller surname is believed to have originated in the southeast region of Ireland, particularly in counties Wexford and Waterford. These areas were heavily influenced by the Anglo-Norman settlers who arrived in Ireland during the 12th century. It is likely that some members of these settlers took on the name Waller, which eventually became a hereditary surname. Over time, the Waller family spread to other parts of Ireland and established themselves in various professions and trades. They became prominent landowners, merchants, and craftsmen, contributing to the economic and social development of their communities. Today, individuals with the surname Waller can still be found in Ireland, as well as in other parts of the world where Irish emigrants settled. The name has evolved and diversified, but its Irish roots continue to be a source of pride for those who bear it.
