Re: Surname "Terry"
It is known in Australia. I can't speak for any of the others but it's probably known there as well.It's likely to be a patronymic (surname taken from the father's name) and therefore would mean "Son of Terry / Terrence". Click here: Terry for information on the origin and meaning.Next time please start your own thread rather than co-opting someone else's.:-)
