Croose Family History

Croose Surname Meaning

From Middle English crous(e) crus ‘bold fierce spirited’. The pronunciation of the name regularly developed from /kru:s/ or /kru:zə/ to /kraus/ or /krauz/ in Modern English spelled Crouse and Crowse.

But the process of phonetic change may sometimes have been incomplete or absent, giving rise to variants spelled Crose, Croose, and Cruse, and thus to confusion between this name and that in (2).

Some bearers may alternatively belong at (2), including John le Crus (1332).

See Cruse.
