However, this is completely wrong because the word Gujar has deformed from the word Gurjar not Gauchar. In addition, the word Gurjar has used in the several pillar inscriptions, not Gujar or Gujjar. The word Gurjar could not be form by any means with the word Gauchar. Actually, Gujar is the name given by Arabs, to the Gurjar community. 2. There is another view is that, word Gujar is derived from Khazar, who inhabited around the Caspian Sea and migrated towards northwest South Asia, which is called Bahr-e-Khizar it was named Khizar, Guzar, Gurjar, Gurjara or Gujjar. This could not be possible because Gurjar are present in India much before the presence of Khazars. Ambiguity in this matter is clarified in "History of Central Asi...
