Name Meaning

French, English, Dutch, Polish, Czech, Romanian, and Croatian; Breton (also Le Baron): from Old French barun, baron, Middle English barun, baroun, Middle Dutch baroen, Polish, Czech, Romanian, and dialectal Croatian baron ‘baron’ (i.e. a nobleman ranking below an earl and above a knight), a title of nobility which was in England also awarded to certain freemen of the cities of London and York and of the Cinque Ports. As a surname it is unlikely to be a status name denoting a person of rank. Generally, it referred to service in a baronial household or was acquired as a nickname by a peasant who had ideas above his station or applied to a man showing characteristics of a nobleman. See also 3 and 4 below, compare Barron and Lebaron .

French: habitational name from (Le) Baron, the name of several places in various parts of France. Compare Lebaron .

German: status name for a freeman or baron, from barūn ‘imperial or church official’, a loanword in Middle High German from Old French (see 1 above).
