Etymology
Gore is an English habitational surname taken from various places called Gore in England. It derives from Old English gara, "a triangle-shaped piece of land," itself from gar, "spear," a reference to the shape of a spearhead. Gore is also a French nickname for a lazy, gluttonous person, from Old French gore, "sow."
