Kuefer Origin and Meaning

The name Kuefer is a boy's name.

Kuefer is an unusual masculine name of likely Germanic origin. It may relate to the German occupational surname 'Küfer' or 'Kuefer,' which referred to a cooper (a barrel maker or someone who works with wooden casks and barrels). As a first name, Kuefer is exceedingly rare, making it a highly distinctive choice. The name carries a strong, solid quality with its consonant sounds. Its rarity means that cultural associations are minimal, allowing the name to develop its own character. The German roots give it an Old World European flavor that might appeal to parents seeking a connection to Germanic heritage or simply a very uncommon name. The spelling with 'ue' represents the Germanic umlaut (ü) in English orthography.
