Last name: Levison
Recorded as Levison, Leverson, Leveson and possibly others, this is a surname of English and sometimes Scottish origins. It derives from the pre 7th century personal name "Leofsunu" meaning beloved son. The personal name appears as Leofsuna or Lefsune in the famous Domesday Book of England in 1086, and as Leuesune in the Transcripts of Charters relating to the Gilbertine Houses, Lincolnshire in 1099.
