Name Meaning
English and Scottish: habitational name primarily from Berwick-on-Tweed, on the Northumbrian coast at the mouth of the Tweed river, a border town that regularly changed hands between the Scots and the English. Also from any of the places called Berwick in Dorset and elsewhere, Berrick in Oxfordshire, Barwick in Norfolk and Yorkshire, or Barricks in High Easter, Essex. This could also be a topographic name for someone who lived ‘(at the) outlying grange’, from Middle English ber(e)wik ‘outlying grange or farm, demesne farm’ (Old English berewīc ‘barley farm’).
