The hann Surname
hann Name Meaning and History
- English: from the medieval personal name Han(n), which is usually a short form of Johan (see John). In some cases, however, it may be from Henry and even Randolph (for the replacement of R- by H- in Germanic names introduced by the Normans, compare Hick).
- German: from an aphetic form of the personal name Johann (see John).
