The last name "Shepherd" has its origins in medieval England, deriving from the Old English term "sceaphierde," which means "sheep herder" or "sheep keeper." This occupational surname was initially given to individuals who tended to sheep, reflecting the agrarian society of the time where sheep farming was a significant part of the economy.

Variations of the surname can be found in different cultures and languages, including "Sheppard" and "Shepperd" in English-speaking countries, as well as "Pastor" in Spanish-speaking regions, which also relates to the concept of shepherding. The name has maintained its relevance over centuries, often symbolizing guidance and care, traits associated with the role of a shepherd.
