Name Meaning

English: from Middle English tren(e), tre(a)wen ‘trees’, the weak plural form of tre ‘tree’ (see Tree ). The surname may be topographic, for someone who lived by a group of trees, or toponymic, from a place so named, such as Trewyn in Holsworthy (Devon), Train in Wembury (Devon), Traine in Modbury (Devon), or the lost Trehane in Calstock (Cornwall).
