Origin & History
Patronymic surname meaning 'son of Anders', the Danish form of Andrew, from the Greek Andreas, meaning 'manly' or 'brave'. Anders was a very common Danish given name throughout the medieval and early modern period, partly through the influence of Saint Andrew, the patron saint of neighbouring Scotland and venerated across northern Europe. The spelling Andersen is distinctively Scandinavian; in Germany it typically appears as Andersen or Anderssen. Approximately 175,000 Danes bear this name.
