The name D'auber was born in the beautiful region of Bohemia, which is now part of Czechoslavakia. By and large, hereditary surnames were formed in Germany when areas of Bohemia, and most of the German states, were a part of the Holy Roman Empire. At this time, as the population of Europe swelled and travel became easier, people began to encounter others sharing their own name and they avoided confusion by adopting a second name. A common form of surname found in Bohemia are those that are derived from nicknames.
