Herrmann
Herrmann is a common German family name as well as a male given name that used to be common, but is now rather rare.
Origin and meaning
As a spelling variant of Hermann , the name is the patronymic of the first name of the same name.
distribution
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the name Herrmann was one of the ten most frequently given boy names in Germany, and in 1891 it was even number one in the frequency statistics. Since the mid-1910s, its popularity gradually declined, from the mid-1940s onwards, so that today hardly any children are called Herrmann.
