}}Taylor is a surname used in the British Isles of French and Latin origin which originated as a Norman occupational surname (meaning tailor) in France[1][1] It is derived from the Old French tailleur ("cutter"),[2] which is in turn derived from the Late Latin taliator, from taliare ("to cut").[3][4] The first historical evidence of the surname dates to the County of Somerset, South West England in 1182.[5] "Taylor" is the fourth-most common surname in United Kingdom,[6] fifth-most common in England, the 11th-most common in Scotland and the 22nd-most common in Wales.[7][8] It is also common in other English-speaking countries (especially Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United States, where it was the tenth most frequently encountered surname in the 2000 US Census),[9] but has a low incidence in Ireland, where it is mostly concentrated in the North.[7] It is often the anglicized form of the German surname Schneider.[10]
