Orghan meaning | Last name Orghan origin

Variant form of Butler. As the name Butteler is of old standing in Ditmarsh, between the Elbe and the Eider, and is not likely to have been at all connected with the French bouteille, we may conclude that the surname may sometimes be derived from the Anglo-Saxon bótel or bótl, an abode or mansion (retained in the names of Wulfenbüttel, in Germany, Newbottle in England, Bouteilles in Normandy, etc.), and may signify, like the recognized Bótel-weard, a house steward.

Orghan is a variation of Butland. This common Devonshire name is probably a corruption of one of the many places called Buckland in that county.

Orghan is form of Orman. One who came from Ormond, in Ireland.

Variation of Butler. One who made, or had charge of, bottles; one in charge of the butts or casks of wine.
