Batz Family History
Batz Name Meaning
from Alemannic, Swabian Batz ‘pile’,
‘large quantity’, possibly applied as a nickname either for a man of
large physical proportions or for a man of wealth. The term also
denoted a coin and may have been used metonymically for a coiner. The
name of the coin is believed to have been derived from its imprint of
a bear, known in folklore as Betz or Petz.(Bätz): see Betz.
