Pronounciation of CASIAN...I first head it as the middle name of one of my friends ancestors, but none of her family that we found know what it means or where it might have come from. I also don't know if this is the right pronounciation, but her mother, grandmother and great aunt told me it's pronounced CAY-SEE-AN.

1. Click on London in your own post, go to the box on the right-hand side, and click on 'Popularity'.2. Old English surname meaning "Son of Gilbert". http://www.searchforancestors.com/surnames/origin/g/gibson.php3. Where did you find it, and what is its ethnic origin?4. Can't help sorry.

Casian...Casian is the middle name of one of my friends ancestors, and none of the family (who are English) have any idea what it means or where it might have come from.
