The distinguished Spanish surname Guajardo is of toponymic origin, being derived from the place where the original bearer lived or held land. In this instance the surname Guajardo is derived from the place name Guajar. "Guajar" is derived from the Arabic word "w zar" which denotes an "inaccessable mountain" or "refuge." This derivation of the place name "Guajar" is not unusual, since it was in southern Spain that the Arab influence on the Spanish language and culture was most profound.
