Scottish, English, and Irish (Antrim): habitational name from Ramsey (Huntingdonshire, now part of Cambridgeshire), from Old English hramsa ‘wild garlic’ + ēg ‘island, low-lying land’.

This form of the surname is also common in Ireland, where it is probably in most if not all cases an altered form of Scottish Ramsay .
