Bunt Family History
Bunt Name Meaning
German: from Middle High German bunt, a term which
originally described black and white coloration, specifically of a
fur. Later, by extension, it came to denote the fur itself. It was
probably applied as a nickname, but in which sense is no longer clear,
and the matter is further complicated by the fact that in some areas
bunt meant ‘multicolored’ (its modern meaning is ‘colorful’).English: probably a metonymic occupational name for a maker
of sieves, from Middle English bonte, bunte.
