Füreri

Füreri is a surname of Swiss origin. It is believed to be a topographic name, possibly derived from the Old High German word "fuhr" or "fuore," meaning "ford" or "crossing." This suggests that the name may have originally belonged to someone who lived near a river ford or was associated with a place where a river was crossed. The surname is most commonly found in Switzerland, particularly in the German-speaking cantons. While its exact etymological roots are rooted in historical linguistic development, the name itself signifies a connection to the landscape and the practicalities of travel in earlier times. Variations in spelling may exist due to historical transcription and regional dialect differences, though Füreri remains the most prevalent form. The distribution of the surname indicates a strong ancestral link to Switzerland.
