Busher (name)

Busher is a surname of German origin. It is believed to be derived from the Middle High German word "busch," meaning "bush" or "grove," and is likely topographical, referring to someone who lived near a prominent bush or in a wooded area. Alternatively, it could be an occupational name for someone who worked in the woods, perhaps a woodcutter or hunter. The name is relatively uncommon. Variant spellings may exist, although "Busher" appears to be the most prevalent form.
