The Neubaur Family Name

A coat of arms belongs to a particular family line rather than to everyone named Neubaur, so the heraldry linked to Neubauer is a starting point, not an automatic right.

The meaning behind Neubaur

Many Neubaur families will find their roots under Neubauer, the form most records use. Name scholars give the meaning as “New farmer”.

Neubaur drops the “e” of Neubauer, a shortening that clerks often made. Before spelling was standardised, one family could appear under several forms. You may also find the name written Nebauer, Neugebauer and Niebauer.
