Seymor Surname Meaning & Coat of Arms

Seymor is best understood together with Seymour: both are English spellings of a single family name.

Read literally, Seymor points to “From Saint-Maur”. Records show Seymor as one of the forms Seymour took over time. Spellings drifted because names were written down by ear in parish books, tax rolls and passenger lists. You may also find the name written St Maur.
