A surname that comes from an occupation
Our answer book holds 86 answers to “A surname that comes from an occupation”, from the first thing anyone would say to names almost nobody would think of. Baker, Smith and Miller are what most people type first, so they score the least. It is a fairly short list: only 22 answers sit in the two rarest tiers, so reaching one takes real knowledge.
Word questions reward thinking about spelling and sound rather than meaning, so say a few out loud. You will find it in stage 45, “Name Dropping”, of the Words mission. The first stages of every mission are free, and later stages come with the full mission.
