Pender Name Meaning
English: occupational name for an official who was responsible for
rounding up stray animals and placing them in a pound, from an agent
derivative of Middle English pind(en) ‘to shut up or
enclose’. Black and MacLysaght quote Woulfe’s opinion that in Ireland
this is often a reduced form of Prendergast.
