Tann Family History
Tann Name Meaning
German: topographic name for someone who lived in a forest,
Middle High German tan. This was originally a distinct word
from tanne ‘pine tree’, and denoted a forest of any
kind. Inevitably, however, the two became confused, with the result
that Tann now denotes only coniferous forests; it is a rather
rare and literary word.English (East Anglia): variant of
Tanner 1.
