The prestigious French surname lager is a proud sign of a rich and dynamic ancestry.

The patronyms were derived from a variety of given names that were of many different origins. As well as the names of the saints of the Christian Church, many of the most common French surnames are derived from personal names of Germanic origin. The surname lager is derived from the Old German personal name Leodegar, meaning people spear.
