ArchivesRe: Name meaning
in reply to a message by Vital Mercy
According to http://www.houseofnames.com:
Abass is a name of ancient Anglo-Saxon origin and comes from the family once having lived near one or more notable aspen trees. The surname Abass is derived from the Old English word "æpse," which means "aspen." The surname may also be a nickname in jest, for a timid person, referring to the trembling leaves of the tree.
Apparently, it's a surname.
