Powell (surname)
Powell is an English surname of Welsh origin. It is a patronymic form of the Welsh name ''Hywel'' (later Anglicized as ''Howell''), with the prefix ''ap'' meaning "son of", together forming ''ap Hywel'', or "son of Hywel". It is an uncommon name among those of Welsh ancestry. It originates in a dynasty of kings in Wales, and Brittany in the 9th and 10th century, and three Welsh royal houses of that time onwards. The House of Tudor, one of the Royal houses of England, also descended from them.
