Vine

Family name origins & meanings

• English : topographic name for someone who lived near a vineyard, or a metonymic occupational name for a vine dresser, from Middle English vine ‘vine(yard)’ (Old French vi(g)ne). Vine growing was formerly more common in England than it is now, and there are several minor places in southern England named from their vineyard, any of which may be partial sources of the surname. See also Vineyard, Wingard.
• Spanish (Viñe) : variant of Viña (see Vina).
