Culver Family History
Culver Name Meaning
English: from Old English culfre ‘dove’ (Late Latin
columbula, a diminutive of columba), which Reaney
suggests was used as a term of endearment. It may therefore have been
applied as nickname for a lovelorn youth or perhaps for someone who
used the expression indiscriminately. Otherwise, it may have been a
metonymic occupational name for a keeper of doves or a nickname for
someone bearing some fancied resemblance to a dove, such as mildness
of temper.
