Etymologie (Engels)

Two possible origins:
* English patronymic surname from either the Norman personal name Leodegar or the Old French equivalent Legier, both containing the Proto-Germanic elements *liudiz (“men, people”) and *garwaz (“ready, prepared”).
* English metonymic occupational surname for a stonemason, from ledger, itself a derivative of Old English leċġan (“to lay”).
