Georgian last names have a long and storied history, dating back to the early days of the Georgian people. The first Georgians were a nomadic people, and their last names reflect this wanderlust. Many of the most common Georgian last names are derived from animals, such as Bear (Gogichaishvili), Wolf (Charkviani), and Fox (Kakabadze).

Georgian last names also often reflect the occupation of the person bearing them. Common occupational surnames include Smith (Amiranashvili), Farmer (Ioseliani), and Priest (Chitaturov). Others are based on personal characteristics, such as good looks (Azarashvili) or strength (Otarashvili).
