Tozer

Tozer is a surname of English origin that appears in historical records in the United Kingdom and North America. It is carried by individuals across a range of professions and has been present in English-speaking communities for several centuries.

The most widely known bearer of the name is Aiden Wilson Tozer (1897–1963), an American pastor, preacher, and author influential in evangelical circles. Tozer wrote extensively on Christian devotion and the nature of God, and his works such as The Pursuit of God (1948) and The Knowledge of the Holy (1961) have been widely read in Protestant Christian communities.

Beyond A. W. Tozer, the surname occurs in various contexts but does not have a single, widely recognized contemporary figure who defines its public profile. As with many surnames of English origin, Tozer can be found among individuals in different regions and occupations, reflecting the broader dispersion of English-language family names in the 19th and 20th centuries.
