Definition:
Webb is an English occupational name of a person who was a weaver, and is from the early Middle English webbe; Old English webba = to weave. By the time the name was adopted, the word webbe was almost obsolete, and the -ster and -er suffixes had found their place in the language, which led to Webster. Webbe, Webber , and Web are variations.
