Origine et histoire

An occupational surname derived from the Old French 'fournier', meaning 'baker' or 'oven keeper', from 'four' (oven, furnace) and the Latin 'furnus'. In medieval France, the village baker who operated the communal oven was an essential figure; this name commemorates that occupation and is distributed widely across central and southern France.
