Seaman is a surname of English origin, derived from Middle English 'seaman', which was an occupational name for someone who worked at sea, such as a sailor or fisherman. The name is believed to have originated in the eastern counties of England, particularly Norfolk and Suffolk, where it has been established since medieval times. Today, Seaman is still predominantly found in these regions, but has also spread to other parts of the UK and beyond, with some families carrying the name having migrated or moved over generations. The surname can also be found in other English-speaking countries such as Australia, Canada, and the United States, indicating a widespread dispersion of the Seaman family over time.
