Augier Surname Meaning
From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history

Henry Auger, alias Henry fil. Aucher, Cambridgeshire 1273. Hundred Rolls.
Auger fil. Eudon, Salop, ibid.
John fil. Aucheri, Cambridgeshire, ibid.
1581. Nicholas Awger and Elizabeth Russell: Marriage Lic. (London).
1674. Buried — Elizabeth Aucher, onely daughter of Sir Antony Aucher, Bart., Kent: St. Mary Aldermary (London).
A Norman name, whence Fitz-Aucher. Also a corruption of Alsager, a place in Cheshire. Archaeologia vol. xix. p. 17.
All three are found in the U.S., and the two first in England. Lower says, "Auger, Aucher, a Norman name, whence Fitz-Aucher; also a corruption of Alsager, a place in Cheshire. Archæologia, vol. xix., p. 17." I should rather derive these names from Algar, Elgar (H.R. Algar, Alger; Domesday, Algar, Ælgar. Algar, name of a bishop of the E. Angles), contracted from the old name Ælfgar, from œlf-gar, which might variously translate, very helping, very strong, a help in war.
