Is "POLLARD" a jewish name?

Question

Is "POLLARD" a jewish name?

Answer 1

My book suggests that it is from Middle English, meaning someone with a cropped head (very short hair)

I have Pollards in my Family Tree (Bishops Nympton, North Devon) back in the late 1600's.

Out of interest, you can Google: Sir Lewis Pollard, Kings Nympton; no proven relationship to me but his history goes way back.

I would think no obvious Jewish connection.

Answer 2

No it is a refrence in the middle east.

Answer 3

No, it is of Anglo-Saxon origins.  It's an English name.

Answer 4

NO

Answer 5

actually its Irish
