Holman is an English and Dutch topographical surname, meaning "dweller in a hollow (hole)". The name was first recorded in England in Worcestershire before the Norman conquest of England around 1327. However, this etymology is based on the concatenation of two similar words found in the Anglo-Saxon language. Given the long history of Norse invasion and immigration to the region prior to the 13th-14th century, the name could very well have originated to mean "man from Norse/Varangian town." The early Rus town of Novgorod is thought to have similar Slavic origins, originally known as "Holmgrad" meaning "old town" or "town on a hill." The term "Holm-" translating in Old Norse to mean "islet town" and Slavic to mean "old." There are variants including: Hollman and Holeman. It is uncommon as a given name.
