"The Moss surname is English, derived from the Old English word 'Mos'. It has a toponymic root and relates to those who lived at a marsh or moor (a mossy place) and their lineage. Sometimes it can also be patronymic, and describe someone who is the son or descendant of a person named 'Moses', or the pet form of that name 'Moss'." (source)

"Moss is a hardy plant that can grow in harsh environments and difficult conditions. In this sense, it can be seen as a symbol of resilience and adaptability." (Source)

"Zen Buddhist monks found serenity in moss, and over the subsequent centuries, garden designers have used it to produce memorable landscapes, while Japanese writers have used moss as a metaphor for the passage of time, longevity, mortality and many other aspects of the human condition. " (Source)

Moss has been used as a medicinal remedy in multiple cultures, as a metaphor in writings and poetry, in decorative gardens, as a natural compass, and even in crafting alcohol (scotch whiskey). And we can't forget it's wonderful contribution to the ecosystem, acting as a home for tiny critters such as mites, ants, worms, etc, assisting in cycling nutrients such as water and nitrogen, influencing the soil climate by protecting against erosion, and much more.

The name Moss can also be short for Moses, and can be an alternative to the name Ross.
