Köken ve Tarih
Patronymic surname meaning 'son of Anders', the Scandinavian form of Andreas, from the Greek 'Andreas' meaning 'manly' or 'brave', itself derived from 'aner' (man). The apostle Andrew was one of the most venerated saints in northern Europe, and the name Anders became widespread throughout Scandinavia by the medieval period. Andersen is spelled with -en (Norwegian and Danish) rather than -son (Swedish) or -son (English), marking it as distinctively Scandinavian; it is perhaps best known internationally through the Danish fairy-tale author Hans Christian Andersen.
