Regard

Regard
Regard
Désigne en principe celui qui est originaire d'une localité appelée le Regard (nombreuses mentions du toponyme en France), qui évoque un endroit d'où l'on domine les alentours. C'est en Franche-Comté et en Savoie que le nom de famille est le plus répandu. Attention cependant : il pourrait bien s'agir d'un nom de personne d'origine germanique, *Reghard, formé sur une racine reg que M.T. Morlet rattache au vieux-haut-allemand rehhan = venger (+ hard = dur). On trouve la variante Regart en Lorraine.
