Lam Genealogy & History

Lam is a Chinese, English, and Danish name. Worldwide it is primarily a Chinese name, a Cantonese variant of Lin, meaning forest, and a Mandarin variant of Lan meaning blue. Lin family history includes descent from Bi Gan, half-brother to Zhou Xin, the last king of the Shang dynasty. Lam is found in Hong Kong and Vietnam, but it is also in Southern India. In England the derivation is from the given name Lambert, the name of a Belgian saint. Finally, Lam can be a Danish nickname for a gentle person or a town in Bavaria.
