In other cases, it may have denoted someone who lived on an upper floor of a building with two or more floors.North German : topographic for someone who lived on the bank of a river or stream name, standardized from Middle Low German over ‘river bank’.Possibly a shortened form of any of various German compound names formed with Ober- (see entries below).Jewish (Ashkenazic) : from German Ober ‘senior’, ‘chief’. In some cases it can denote a rabbi; in others it is ornamental.A 17th-century American bearer of this name, Richard Ober (1641–1715/16), emigrated from Abbotsbury, Dorset, England, to the Salem colony and settled in Mackerel Cove, MA, later Beverly. His descendant Frederick Albion Ober, who was born in Beverly, MA, in 1849, was an ornithologist who discovered 22 new species of birds in the Lesser Antilles, the flycatcher Myiarchus oberi, and oriole Icterus oberi.

The two villages of this name in Norfolk are recorded in Domesday Book as Ristuna, and are from Old English hrÄ«s ‘brushwood’ + tÅ«n ‘enclosure’, ‘settlement’; Ruston Parva in East Yorkshire, recorded in Domesday Book as Roreston, is named from the genitive case of the Old Norse byname Hrór meaning ‘vigorous’ + Old English tÅ«n.

In some cases it may be a status name for a householder, someone who owned his own dwelling as opposed to being a tenant, but more often it is an occupational name for a servant who worked in such a house, in particular a steward who managed one.English : respelling of Howes.Translation of German Haus.
