Schwarzenegger is a German surname that means person from Schwarzenegg, which is both a town in Switzerland and a place in Land Salzburg in Austria. "Schwarzen" means "black," and "egg" (from the same root as the German word "ecke" for "corner") refers to a ridge, e.g., Eggli (long ridge), Eggiman (lives on a ridge), and Eggler (farms on a ridge).[1] Notable people with the surname include:

Arnold Schwarzenegger (born 1947), Austrian-American former bodybuilder, film actor, and politician
Gustav Schwarzenegger (1907–1972), Austrian police chief, once married to Aurelia Jadrný (1922–1998), father of Arnold Schwarzenegger
Katherine Schwarzenegger (born 1989), American author, daughter of Arnold Schwarzenegger
Patrick Schwarzenegger (born 1993), American entrepreneur, actor and model, son of Arnold Schwarzenegger

Hmm, I always thought it meant "black Egger" (Egger being someone who operates a harrow (Egge in German), which is a specialized type of plow.

Schwarzenegger, not Schwarzeneggar.

Morphological analysis is Schwarz-en-egg-er. Egg is an Upper-German (i.e. Southern) variant of Ecke = corner, cognate to English edge. Here it carries an older meaning: a mountain-peak, -edge or -slope. An Egger is someone who lives there. Schwarz means black, schwarzen is an accusative or dative form, though the inflected form might be just schwarze in which case -n- is a kind of "glue" letter without meaning; both analyses are possible, you can't tell and it doesn't matter.

Hence, a Schwarzenegger is someone who lives on a black mountain-peak, -edge or -slope.
