Släkthistoria för Vannet
Vannet Vad efternamn betyder
reduced form of Vannand of uncertain origin. Black thinks it unlikely to be from Gaelic (Mac)Mhannain. There is an Irish name name Vannan from Ó Fionnáin (see Fanning) a name which Black notes as occurring in SW Scotland in the form Finnan (see Finan). This is probably not the source of Vannand in E Scotland.
