What is the meaning of the name Harmann ?

The baby name Harmann is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced IPA: /ˈhɑr.mən/; respelling: HAR-man.

Harmann is Germanic in Origin.

Harmann is a Germanic given name and surname-derived spelling linked to Hermann/Herman, built from Old High German heri ‘army’ + man ‘man.’ The sense is ‘army man; warrior, soldier.’ The double -nn reflects German orthography, while the medial -a- mirrors Low German and Dutch forms; related spellings appear in English as Harman or Harmann and in Dutch/Frisian as Harmen and Harm.

Across history the base name Hermann was widely used in the medieval German-speaking world - most famously borne by the scholar-monk Hermann of Reichenau (11th c.). In the 19th century it surged again in German lands through patriotic interest in ‘Hermann’ (Arminius) of the Cherusci and spread abroad via migration, feeding English and Scandinavian Herman. Harmann functions as a modern, rarer variant with a traditional feel. Cognates and variants include: Hermann (German), Herman (English, Scandinavian), Harman/Harmann (English), Harmen/Harm (Dutch/Frisian); feminine: Hermine.
