Curtis

Curtis or Curtiss is a common English given name and surname of Anglo-Norman origin derived from the Old French ''curteis'' (Modern French ''courtois'', surname Courtois〔Surname ''Courtois'' in France (French) ()〕) which means "polite, courteous, or well-bred". 〔Percy Hide Reaney, Richard Middlewood Wilson, ''A Dictionary of English Surnames'' (1991), p. 121.〕 It is a compound of ''curt-'' ″court″ and ''-eis'' ″-ish″.〔(CNRTL etymology of ''courtois'' (french) )〕 The spelling ''u'' to render () in Old French was mainly Anglo-Norman and Norman, when the spelling ''o'' () was the usual Parisian French one, Modern French ''ou'' (). ''-eis'' is the Old French suffix for ''-ois'', Western French (including Anglo-Norman) keeps ''-eis'', simplified ''-is'' in English. The word ''court'' shares the same etymology but retains a Modern French spelling, after the orthography had changed.〔T. F. Hoad, ''English Etymology'', Oxford University Press paperbook 1993. p. 101a.〕
It was brought to England (and subsequently, the rest of the Isles) via the Norman Conquest.
Many Hungarian immigrants in English speaking countries with the last name Kertész have adopted the name ''Curtis'', since it is pronounced similarly and helped them integrate into their new community.
