What is the meaning of the name Hage ?

The baby name Hage is a boy name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced HAH-guh.

Hage is Dutch, Germanic in Origin.

Hage is chiefly a transferred surname of Dutch and Low German origin. Its root is Proto-West Germanic *hagō, a fenced or hedged place, continued in Old High German hag and Middle Dutch/Middle Low German hage. The literal sense is hedge, enclosure, or bounded plot. As a byname it was topographic, identifying a household near a hedge, fenced field, or enclosed woodland.

In the Netherlands, northern Germany, and neighboring German-speaking areas, Hage belonged to the large class of medieval locative surnames; Hagen, Haag, and Haga are related regional forms. Immigration records place Hage families in North America and other settler societies by the nineteenth century. As a forename it remains uncommon, with no fixed religious association, and is more often recorded for males than females.
