It can be interesting to look up some of the less common names on the site:
http://www.nationaltrustnames.org.uk/
This shows the geographical distribution of surnames taken from the 1881 and 1998 censuses.
A name of particular interest to me is "Meek". This name which is six times more common in Gloucestershire than the national average and the top postal town in the UK is Drybrook, which makes it a good Forest name from my perspective.
