Meaning & Origin of Auric
Meaning: Of or relating to gold.
Origin: French (surname).
A common claim: Widely described as meaning 'of gold,' from the Latin word for gold (aurum). Actually: The given name actually traces to a French surname, not directly to the Latin word for gold — the 'of gold' meaning belongs to a separate English chemistry word that only looks the same.
