The distinguished and ancient German surname Kutzer is derived from the High German word "Kutsche," itself derived from the Hungarian "kocsi," meaning "coach." It is likely that the progenitor of the name was a coach driver.
The surname Kutzer was first found in Munich, where several notable branches of the Kutzer family were already beginning to emerge. The written history of the surname dates back to 1482, when Niclas and Wilhelm Kutzer were registered as citizens of Bavaria in 1482. The young Kutzer family played a crucial role in the early history of the region, and contributed greatly to the development of medieval Bavarian society.
