The surname Bledsoe is of English origin and is believed to have originated from the Old English words “bleodsige” or “blod-saeg,” meaning “blood-soaked.” The name may have originally been a nickname for someone who was a butcher or a warrior. The Bledsoe family can be traced back to the 14th century in England and has since spread to the United States, where it continues to be a relatively uncommon surname.
