The surname Trotter has its origins in Ireland, specifically in the province of Ulster. It is of Scottish and Northern English origin, derived from the Middle English word "trottere," which means a person who trots or walks briskly. The surname likely started as an occupational name for a messenger or a courier who traveled quickly on foot. The term "trotter" may also have been used to describe a person who owned or worked with horses, such as a stable hand or a horse dealer.
The Trotter surname is found in various parts of Ireland, with concentrations in counties Tyrone, Antrim, and Down. Many families with the surname can trace their ancestry back to Scottish settlers who arrived in Ulster during the Plantation period in the 17th century. These settlers were encouraged by the English Crown to establish English and Scottish Protestant communities in Ireland.
Over time, the Trotter name spread throughout Ireland, and descendants of these Scottish settlers became integrated into Irish society. The surname Trotter has since become a common and recognizable name among Irish families, with members of the Trotter clan residing in various parts of the country. Today, individuals with the surname Trotter can be found not only in Ireland but also in other parts of the world, particularly in countries with significant Irish diaspora communities.
