More About The Name fitz

The name Fitz is of Old French and Anglo-Norman origin. It is a patronymic surname prefix meaning "son of" or "descendant of" in Old English. It derives from the Medieval Latin "Filius," which means "son." Thus, Fitz signifies that the person is the illegitimate son of a nobleman or a member of the upper class.

Fitz is commonly used as a prefix followed by the father's name, such as Fitzroy (son of Roy), Fitzpatrick (son of Patrick), or Fitzgerald (son of Gerald). It was widely used in medieval England and Ireland for those born out of wedlock to a noble or a man of high social status, indicating both their connection to the father and their status as nobility.
