Ferguson is a Scottish surname derived from the Gaelic words “fear” meaning man, and “gus” meaning vigor or force. The name was originally given to someone who was strong or brave. The most famous Ferguson is undoubtedly Sir Alex Ferguson, the legendary football manager who led Manchester United to numerous trophies. However, there are many other notable Fergusons, including astronaut Ronald Ferguson and musician Jayne Ferguson. Today, the name is found all over the world, particularly in English-speaking countries such as the United States, Canada, and Australia.
