English (mainly Devon and Cornwall): nickname from Norman
French buge ‘mouth’ (Late Latin bucca), applied either
to someone with a large or misshapen mouth or to someone who made
excessive use of his mouth, i.e. a garrulous, indiscreet, or
gluttonous person. The word is also recorded in Middle English in the
sense ‘victuals supplied for retainers on a military campaign’, and
the surname may therefore also have arisen as a metonymic occupational
name for a medieval quartermaster.Scottish (Caithness and
Orkney): unexplained.
