Varga Surname Meaning & Coat of Arms

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

Family name meaning

The last name Varga is another written form of Vargas, a well-known Spanish family name. Like many surnames, it began with a place: “From Vargas (a hillside)”.

How the spelling arose

Varga drops the “s” of Vargas, a simplification that clerks often made. Other spellings include Bargas and Vergas.
