Smead Name Meaning
English: possibly from Middle English smethe ‘smooth’, hence
a topographic name for someone who lived on a piece of smooth, level
ground, or a nickname from the same word used in a transferred sense
for someone of an amiable disposition. Alternatively, it could be a
topographic or metonymic occupational name from Old English
smiððe, smeðe ‘smithy’, or a habitational name
from a place named with this word, as for example Smeeth in Kent.
