Long, long ago, the Old German language's masculine given name of "Amalric", meaning "work-rule", evolved into the Old French language's masculine given names of "Amauri" and "Emaurri". Some researchers are quite convinced that the name was washed upon England's shores as a surname long before the Norman Conquest- first emerging in Devon, where they had held a family seat.
