What Does the Name Huttson Mean?

Huttson is an English surname used as a given name, a spelling of Hutson. It is usually explained as a patronymic meaning "son of Hut(t)," where Hut(t) is a Middle English pet form of Hugh. Hugh derives from a Germanic name based on the element hugiz, "mind" or "spirit," which entered English through Old French. In that conventional explanation the name's sense is "son of Hugh." The derivation is not completely settled: Hudde and Hutte are also recorded as medieval personal names, and some surname references connect the Hud- forms with the Old English name Hudda or with a pet form of Richard as well as Hugh.

Huttson Name History & Origins

The name belongs to the English patronymic surname tradition, in which -son was added to a father's personal name. Hugh was a common personal name in England after the Norman Conquest, and its medieval short forms included Hudde and Hutte. Adding -son to such a short form produced Hutson; Huttson is the same surname with a doubled t. Patronymic bynames of this kind became fixed and hereditary in the later Middle Ages, so later bearers inherited the surname rather than being literally identified as a father's son.

As a first name, Huttson is a transferred use of the surname, a pattern shared by many English names ending in -son. The related surname Hudson has the same "son of Hudde" structure and is often derived from a pet form of Hugh or, in some cases, Richard. Hutson and Huttson are sometimes grouped with that family, but the t spelling points to the Hutte form of the personal name.
