Meaning of this name is unknown.
Stephen Gouriet Ryan says: I have seen several suggestions for the meaning of the name 'Gouriet': 1. from the Old French word 'gour' meaning a sow, hence 'keeper of swine'. 2. meaning 'a gentleman of fashion'. But I lean to 'trickster' (confidence man?), because there is a modern day French verb 'gourier', meaning to trick. 'Se gourer', the reflexive verb, means literally to trick oneself, i.e. to make a mistake. There is a coat of arms, which suggests an early armorial bearer of the name, i.e. a knight. The earliest bearer of the name that I have found is listed in the International Genealogical Index for France for someone alive in the 1400s, at a time when family names were making a resurgence. By the way, the name Gouriet is not pronounced to rhyme with 'Harriet', but rather 'Goor-ee-eh' i.e., with a silent 't'. In English the accent is on the first syllable, but in French is on the last syllable, as is common in French. P.S. There was a famous bearer of the name, my ancestor, Dennes Francois Victor Gouriet, born in Paris in the 1770s, and a hugely talented male ballet dancer on the Paris stage. There he was spotted by the foremost theatrical entrepreneur of late Georgian times, Charles Dibdin and head-hunted by him for a principle dancer at the ultra-luxurious palatial 'King's Theatre' in London. He became a huge sensation there and at Sadlers' Wells. To the best of my knowledge all Gouriets born in London after 1800 are descendants of this talented man, known as Denis-Francois Gouriet in Paris, and as Francois Gouriet in London.
