The cropper Surname
cropper Name Meaning and History
English (chiefly Lancashire): occupational name for a picker of
fruit or vegetables or a reaper of cereal crops, from an agent
derivative of Middle English cropt(en) ‘to pick’. The word was
used also to denote the polling of cattle and the name may therefore
have been given to someone who did this.
