Ingersoll is a surname derived of the Old Norse words "Ingvar" or "Inger" and "[https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/s%C3%A1l#Old_Norse sál]", common words in found in modern Icelandic, Swedish and Norwegian[1]. Surnames derived from Old Norse have changed over time due the splitting of the language into modern Icelandic, Norwegian, Swedish, Greenlandic, Faroese and Danish[2] as well as names being changed with immigration into new countries like the United States.[3] This surname has split over time into some of these common spellings: Ingersoll, Ingersöll, Ingersol, Ingersole, Ingvarsson, Ingersson, Inkersoll, and Ingwersol. During the Viking Age, from the late 8th century to the mid-11th century, the Old Norse language expanded through Europe as the Vikings conquered and settled areas like Normandy (Normanni in Old Norse) and Inkersall (Ingvarsál in Old Norse).[4] - Andrew Ingersoll (born 1940), American astronomer and professor of planetary science at the California Institute of Technology
