Clausen (:ˈklauˀsən) is a Danish patronymic surname, literally meaning ''child of Claus'', Claus being a German form of the Greek Νικόλαος, Nikolaos, (cf. Nicholas), used in Denmark at least since the 16th century.〔Søndergaard, Georg (2000) Danske For- og Efternavne. Askholms Forlag. ISBN 87-90721-17-9〕 The spelling variant Klausen has identical pronunciation (as does the often interchangeable Claussen). The two variants are number 34 and 85 on the top100 of surnames in Denmark.〔(University of Copenhagen - Name Research Section )〕 Occurrences of Clausen/Klausen as a surname outside Denmark and Schleswig-Holstein are due to immigration. Immigrants to English-speaking countries sometimes changed the spelling to Clauson. ==People== * Alden W.
