Welsh: from the personal name Trahaearn, composed of the
elements tra ‘most’, ‘very’ + haearn ‘iron’. This
personal name has also given rise to a place name (spelled
Trehaearn as if containing the element tre(f)
‘homestead’, ‘settlement’), and so in some cases the surname may be a
habitational name with this origin.
