Meaning and background
The story behind Andujar
Andujar is the unaccented spelling of a Spanish family name normally written Andújar. It is a habitational surname referring to the city of Andújar in Andalusia, to the east of Córdoba. The documentary basis is geographical rather than a character trait or a translated common noun. For a dog it has an uncommon Spanish place-and-surname association, with pronunciation likely to be influenced by whether the speaker knows Spanish.
