The surname Worsopp has an interesting history, particularly in relation to its Irish descent. The name is of Anglo-Norman origin and derives from the Old Norse name "Ormr," meaning serpent or dragon. It was introduced to Ireland during the 12th century Norman invasion. The Normans, who were of Viking origin, brought their names and language to the island. Over time, the name Ormr underwent several transformations, eventually becoming Worsopp. This change was influenced by the phonetic pronunciation of the name by the native Irish population. It is worth noting that spelling variations such as Worsop, Worsoppe, and Worsopps have also been recorded. The Worsopp surname can be found primarily in the province of Ulster in Northern Ireland. Many individuals with this surname can trace their ancestry back to the medieval period when their Norman ancestors settled in the area. Throughout history, individuals with the surname Worsopp have been involved in various occupations and professions. They have contributed to the development of their local communities, whether through farming, trade, or other endeavors. Today, the Worsopp surname continues to be present in Ireland, with some members of the family having migrated to other parts of the world. The name serves as a reminder of the Norman influence in Ireland and the rich history of its people.
