Last Name GEMSON

Summary/Contribute


Meaning The son of James, popularly Jim and Jem, or Gem. From the absence of pet forms of James it is probable that the 14th century only saw anything like a familiar use of this name. Indeed James was very rare. James has bequeathed us few surnames. Its confusion with John through Hack has had much to do with this. The other leading Apostolic names have left rich legacies in English directories.
Origin English, Irish
