Bronze

Bronze (plural Bronzes)

1. A surname.

• bonzer

16th century as Bronzo, Brunzo, directly from Italian bronzo. Since the 18th century adapted to French bronze, itself from the Italian. Further origin uncertain; see the Italian lemma for more. The unusual pronunciation /s/ for ‹z› perhaps developed as a compromise between French /z/ and German /ts/.
