Primrose

== English == === Etymology === The surname derives from a place name in Fife, Scotland; Watson (1926) derived this from Pictish/Proto-Brythonic *prenn (“wood, tree”) + *rros (“moor, heath”). Taylor instead argued for Scottish Gaelic prím (“first”) + ros (“promontory”). Changed by folk etymology because of phonetic resemblance to primrose. The given name is one of the 19th-century flower names. === Proper noun === Primrose A habitational surname. (rare, chiefly Britain) A female given name from English. ==== Derived terms ==== Primrose syndrome === Anagrams === Primeros, promiser
