Burgess originally meant a freeman of a borough (England, Wales, Ireland) or burgh (Scotland). It later came to mean an elected or unelected official of a municipality, or the representative of a borough in the English House of Commons. The term was also used in some of the American colonies.

Answer:

B urgess as a boys' name is of Old French origin, and the meaning of Burgess is "freeman of a borough".The name is derived from the Middle English word burge(i)s, or the Old French word burgeis which both mean "inhabitant and freeman of a fortified town." another meaning for burgess can be a citizen of a British borough.or a representative of a borough.
