French (western): from a pet form of Martin 1.

English: habitational name from Martineau in France. The name was also taken to England by Huguenot refugees in the 17th century (see below).

FOREBEARS Harriet Martineau (1802–76), the English writer, was the daughter of a Norwich manufacturer. She was descended from a family of French Huguenots who owned land around Poitou and Touraine in the 15th century. They included a number of surgeons in the 17th century. In the 19th century a branch of the family was firmly established in Birmingham, England; others went to North America.
