Howard 

This common surname derives from the phrase "Hog Warden", the name of one of the most important of the Officers of an English Feudal Manor. (Sources: an online document dating from Feudal England and a segment of the late John Ciardi's wonderful radio program.)

My brother's name, strangely enough, was Howard.
