Løvset

Løvset is a Norwegian surname. It is derived from a farm name, indicating the family's origin or historical connection to a place called Løvset. Such place names are often composed of two elements: the first describing the location (in this case, likely "løv", meaning leaves or foliage), and the second a common suffix used for farms or settlements (such as "set", meaning farmstead, dwelling, or place). Therefore, Løvset likely signifies a farm located in an area with abundant leaves or foliage. Surnames derived from farm names are a common characteristic of Norwegian and Scandinavian naming traditions.
