GERHARD. Old
German name meaning "firm spear," from ger "spear" and
hard/hart "firm, hard."
... gher or gjer
is one of the most frequent of the component parts of names. Its
right and original meaning is a spear, the same as that of the Latin quiris
and Keltic coir...
Gar is quite in modern German, and gher
has dropped out of the language, and thus most of the German names
commencing with it have been misinterpreted to mean all, but it
is impossible to compare them with their northern cousins without
tracing the same spear in both. (History of Christian Names,
Yonge, 1884)
