Talk:Bélanger

Latest comment: 12 years ago by Discospinster in topic Origin of name

According to houseofnames.com the surname Belanger comes from the name of a town in Normandy, called Angers. It is very unlikely that Belanger means "warrior" in old French. Does anyone have proofs to support this?

Here is what I have found on Ancestry.com (Belanger seems to be a variant of Beringer):

Beringer 1. German and Dutch: from the Germanic personal name Beringer, composed of the elements berin + ger ‘(warrior) fighting with a spear’. 2. German: variant spelling of Behringer 1. 3. French (Béringer) and English (of Norman origin): from the Old French personal name Berenger, derived from the same Germanic personal name as 1. It owed its popularity in medieval England in part to the fact that it was the name of one of the characters in the Charlemagne romances. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.103.184.76 (talk) 22:02, 16 August 2010 (UTC)Reply


The information in this page, and in house of names, is not full, nor is it accurate...

All Bélanger and Belanger family have three Origins, these origins are;

1 = France
2 = Germany
3 = England
My name Is Martin Charles François Bélanger... Family Archive bearer... 

I am a direct descendant of the Bélanger Family knights that came to Canada From the family castle in France. The " Chevaliers De Belle Angers " I.E. (knights of beautiful angels), from the "Chateau D'Anger" next to the town of "Anger" in Normandie of France. Our Ancestors are recorded to have been "Gaulois" since 300 years before Christ... meaning Gaelic... and YES, Gaelic France is the same as in England... and it is the origin language of French... (RECORDED FACT OF HISTORY).

The Familly from Germany that is related to the Belanger Family and not Bélanger

family, was actually the ancient family of Ingers. This Family also had many dealings, commerce and mixing of families between the Bélanger and Belanger family. This produces Belle Ingers... Belingers, Berengers, and more... Ingers also had a great meaning to the name and you may want to look it up. (Proven to be found in the original family archives.)

The Bélanger Family also went to Nottingham England in the service of the King to help in the holly Crusades. The name then was pronounced Belanger, and made quite the mix in the family tree. (Found in the original family archives.)
 There is quite the extensive research done in exactly what happened in our family.  For more information on the real origins of the real Bélanger Family... Look for...

The " Chateau d'Anger " in Normandie, France... and look into the

Family of " Ingers " in Germany. Both families pre-date the roman invasion of Europe.
