Boothman Vad efternamn betyder
English (northern): occupational name from Middle English both (Old Danish bōth) ‘temporary shelter such as a covered market stall or a cattle-herdsman's hut’ + man. In the Pennine uplands of northern England where booths were subdivisons of vaccaries or cattle-rearing establishment the name probably denoted a herdsman who looked after cattle perhaps a man in charge of a vaccary. Elsewhere the surname might have denoted a shopkeeper but evidence for this lacking. Alternatively the name can also be an occupational name for a servant of a man surnamed Booth.
