Drew (/dr/) is both a surname and a given name. A son of Charlemagne had that name, and it became popular in France as Dreus and Drues.[1] Another source was the county of Dreux, also in France, ruled by the Counts of Dreux from the 12th century onward. The name was introduced to England by the Normans, in 1066 at the time of the Conquest, and is first found there in the Domesday Book. Another derivation is from the Irish Ó Draoi, literally meaning "Descendant of the Druid".[2] As a male given name, it can be a shortened version of Andrew.
