Wolffish (family name)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Steinbeiß (er) is a family name from the southern German-speaking area.

Meaning and origin

The name allows for several interpretations, including as follows from a derivation from a place name, a nickname, from a job title, from the Scandinavian language or the Cimbrian language:

Place name

Nickname

  • Derived from a nickname (no patronymic , name of origin , home name or professional name , but e.g. from body, mind, character traits or from the life history and the like of a person or tribe) and especially with metaphorical reference to an animal: each after in singular or plural and taking into account the regional diversity of dialects in the southern German language area (see variants and distribution) known as the Steinbeiss ( Steinpeiss ) / the Steinbeissen ( Steinpeissen ), the Steinbeiß ( Steinpeiß ) / the Steinbeisser ( Steinpeisser ) based on the zoological species of the loach (family) (loaches, thorn gobies), z. B. to be found as an animal symbol of heraldry in the coat of arms of the Viennese medicine professor Martinus Steinpeiss (Steinbeiss) in his book (see below) in the 16th century

Job name

  • Derived from a profession: stonemason , the craftsman for the more geometric processing of stone into building parts; Stone sculptor who creates plastic free natural stone works; Steinhauer , a common name for historical sculptor and masons, which in the strict sense but quarry workers (derived from Steinbiß , quarry is'), the there the workpieces degrades and dresseth for Steinmetz or sculptor

Scandinavian language or Cimbrian language

  • Derivation from a translation of the Cimbrian word Frisún 'Steinbeisser' 'frisone': The immigration of the Jutes , the presumed Cimbres , from northern Jutland ( Denmark , Scandinavia) to the Styrian area indicates that the name comes from the Cimbrian language.
  • Derivation from Old Scandinavian (e.g. the Jutes): stone and peis (or peiss or peiser or peisser ) from the word peis , 'outdoor fireplace' and ker 'rock', 'cliff' means 'fireplace on the rock or' Stone fireplace '. Even today, the word pisker from pis + ker can be found in the Slovenian language of the originally Solvendian people from northern Jutland . It has been slightly changed and still has the meaning of 'large pot in which you cooked on the fireplace for the whole family'. The name probably came about due to a formative cultural habit and origin of the bearers of the name, who settled as Cimbri in southern Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Slovenia and the surrounding area. The word Steinpeis means stone fireplace in Norwegian , made of stone 'stone' + Peis 'fireplace'.

First name bearers

The name is first used in Alsace in 1248 as a landscape in what is now eastern France with a citizen named "Heinricus Steinbiss" and later also as "Heinrich Steinbiss" in connection with the acquisition of properties in the Heimbachtal in Esslingen from Margrave Heinrich II of Burgau († 1293 / 94) from the Berg-Burgau house mentioned in a document (1280).

At the same time, the name "Steinpeiss" appears in 1412 in connection with the change of ownership of the "Steinpeisshaus" of the same name in Hartberg and Aichberg Castle (both in today's Austria) as the headquarters and, via its descendants, with many other castles in Austria and Bavaria. "Seyfried Steinpeiß" from a former servant family (based in Anger near Weiz ) of the Stubenberg aristocratic family takes over this property in Styria. The Steinpeiss (er) (female also Steinpeissin ) from Styria founded together with other noble families of Styria (e.g. von Stubenberg, von Dietrichstein , von Herberstein , von Kuefstein , von Wildenstein etc.) for many centuries villages and Markets in their related territories.

The names of the localities of the same name (e.g. Aichdorf or Eichdorf Bavaria based on Aichberg or Eichberg as the family seat of the Lords of Steinpeiss in Styria) or localities of the same name of the namesake and their related families (e.g. Steinbeißen, Steinbeisserberg, Stubenberg ), can later be found outside Styria in a similar way in Bavaria , Baden-Württemberg and Central Germany, more or less changed. It is still a matter of dispute whether the name originally came from the nobility from Styria , Lower Bavaria or from today's Baden-Württemberg, as people with these names and their variants can be documented in all three regions up to the Middle Ages.

Variants and Distribution

The variations of the name are to be understood depending on the language area . For example, for the simple s a ß or sz (eg in Steinbîs, Steinbiss, Steinbiss and Steinbisz;. Steinbeis, Steinbeiss, Steinbeiß and Steinbeisz; at Steinbeiser, wolffish, loach and Steinbeiszer) from the unvoiced b a voiced p (Steinbeiss, Steinpeiss; Steinbeisser, Steinbeisser) or from the long î an ai or ei (e.g. possibly Steinbîs, Steinbais, Steinbeis). Such linguistic adaptations can be found in Cimbrian (see phonology), a Bavarian dialect .

The language area in which the variations of the name appear is reflected in the specific use of the letters (e.g. voiced consonants p, d, g versus unvoiced consonants p, t, k ). The ss is mainly used in Switzerland and Austria, the ß in Germany and the sz in Hungary (Steinbeisser, Steinbeißer, Steinbeiszer). The b is used in Germany and the p mainly in Austria or Switzerland (Steinbeisser, Steinpeisser; Steinbeis, Steinpeis). Overall, however, overlays can be observed, which most likely came about through the historical, close affiliation of the neighboring regions in the southern German- speaking area and the possessions of their namesake (sometimes knightly, counts or ecclesiastical nobles). The name is after the mass emigration of the name bearers after economic crises and wars and the like. a. also found in the United States of America. In addition to the forms presented (e.g. Steinbeisser in the US state of Montana ), the names often appear in identical (e.g. Steinbus , Steinbuser ) or translated form due to the translation from German into English .
