A habitational name from a place in Fife named Abercrombie (earlier Abercrumbin), which is of Pictish origin, meaning 'mouth of the Cromb or Crombie (bending river)'.
Bearers of this surname were descended from royal cooks of the kings of Scots and were originally known as Cook of Abercrombie; their collateral branch were known as the Cooks of Balcaskie.
