Lloyd (surname)

The name Lloyd is a variation of the Welsh word llwyd or clwyd, which means "grey" or "brown" (Llwyd is also used as a personal name). The double-l represents the voiceless alveolar lateral fricative of Welsh, and was sometimes also represented as fl, yielding the related name Floyd which can also be a variation of the family name Flood
