Släkthistoria för Vizor
Vizor Vad efternamn betyder
from Old French viseor ‘scout spy’. This seems to be confirmed by the definite article in the earliest name forms which tell against derivation from Middle English viser vis(o)ur (Anglo-Norman French visere visure Old French visier) ‘visor of a helmet; mask’ athough the surname may have been confused with this word once the definite article was dropped.
