Mine is Buford. Oddly enough named after an ex boyfriend of my mothers before she met my father.
Google give this as the origins: Surname derived from the French place name and surname Beaufort, meaning "beautiful fortress". It was popular in the late 19th and early 20th century, at least partly in honor of Civil War general John Buford. Tennessee sheriff Buford Pusser was the inspiration for the movie "Walking Tall".
