The surname Robson has an interesting history, particularly for those of Irish descent.
Robson is derived from the medieval personal name "Robin," which itself is a diminutive form of the name Robert. The name Robert has Norman roots and was brought to Ireland by the Anglo-Norman invaders in the 12th century. It quickly gained popularity among both the Norman settlers and the native Irish population.
Over time, the name Robin/Robert evolved into various forms, including Robson. The suffix "-son" is of Scandinavian origin and means "son of." It was commonly added to surnames to indicate paternity or ancestry.
As for the Irish connection, it is believed that some individuals with the surname Robson may have Gaelicized their names to fit into the Irish cultural context. This would involve adapting the surname to have an Irish Gaelic form. For example, Robson could be anglicized from the Gaelic name "Mac Roibeaird," meaning "son of Robert."
It is important to note that while the surname Robson can be of Irish origin, it is not exclusive to those of Irish descent. It is also found in other parts of the British Isles, such as England and Scotland, where it may have different etymological origins.
