The naming convention used is "son of," meaning Anderson was originally for the boys of men named Anders.

This naming convention was used in a few countries like Scotland, where you'll find names like Thompson, but was also used in Sweden, which is primarily what nationality the name Anderson is.

Anderson is among the most common last names in Sweden.
