English (of Norman origin) and French: from Old French
voisin ‘neighbor’ (Anglo-Norman French veisin) . The
application is uncertain; it may be a nickname for a ‘good neighbor’,
or for someone who used this word as a frequent term of address, or it
may be a topographic name for someone who lived on a neighboring
property.
