The surname Bridge has a rich history, particularly among those of Irish descent.

The name derives from the Old English word "brycg," meaning bridge. It is believed to have been initially used to describe someone who lived near or worked on a bridge. As bridges played a significant role in medieval society, the name Bridge became quite common.

In Ireland, the surname Bridge may have been introduced during the Anglo-Norman invasion in the 12th century. Over time, it spread throughout the country, with individuals and families adopting the name. Some Irish bearers of the Bridge surname likely have English or Anglo-Norman ancestors who settled in Ireland.

During the Great Famine in the mid-19th century, many Irish people emigrated to escape poverty and find better opportunities. As a result, the Bridge surname likely spread further to countries such as the United States, Canada, and Australia. Today, descendants of Irish immigrants with the surname Bridge can be found around the world.

In summary, the surname Bridge originated from the Old English word for bridge and likely spread to Ireland during the Anglo-Norman invasion. Over time, it became a common surname among individuals of Irish descent, including those who emigrated during the Great Famine.
