Faulkner Family History
Faulkner Name Meaning
English: occupational name for someone who kept and trained falcons
(a common feudal service). Falconry was a tremendously popular sport
among the aristocracy in medieval Europe, and most great houses had
their falconers. The surname could also have arisen as metonymic
occupational name for someone who operated the siege gun known as a
falcon.
