Jarmann is English in Origin.

Jarmann functions today as a rare given name derived from a surname. The name is most closely associated with Norway, where Jarmann appears as a family name; a noted bearer is engineer Jacob Smith Jarmann (1832–1889), designer of the Jarmann rifle. Etymologically, Jarmann is widely viewed as a Scandinavian or Anglicized variant of Jarman, from Middle English Jerman/Jarman, denoting “a German,” or reflecting the Latin personal name Germanus, “of the same stock; brotherly.” Thus the sense is “German man” or “kinsman.”

As a given name, Jarmann is modern and uncommon, occasionally chosen to honor Norwegian heritage or the surname itself. Related forms include Jarman, Jarmon, Jerman, Jermann, and Germain/Germanus in Latinate traditions; compare also the German name Hermann/Herman, though etymologically distinct. No established feminine form exists; nicknames might include Jar or Manny. Usage remains rare across English- and Scandinavian-speaking countries.
