Reimann Surname Meaning

German: shortened form of Rheinmann, a habitational name for someone from the Rhineland. It is derived from the French Reimon (see Raymond). This name also has roots in a pet form of an ancient Germanic personal name.

This ancient name is formed with the first element from ragin, meaning ‘advice or counsel’, or rīc, meaning ‘power(ful) or rich’. Additionally, it has a topographic origin from Middle High German and Middle Low German rein, which translates to ‘elevated border line’. In modern German, this is represented by Rain.

The surname is not only found in Germany but also has a presence in Poland, Denmark, France (specifically in Alsace and Lorraine), and Czechia. This demonstrates the geographical spread and cultural integration of the name.
