Armentrout
Ermentraut (variants include Irmentraut, Ermantraut, Ehrmantraut and Ehrmanntraut) is a rare German surname. Further Americanized variant spellings include ''Ermentrout'', ''Armentrout'', ''Armintrout'', ''Armantrout'' and ''Armontrout''. History The ''Dictionary of American Family Names'' derives it from a feminine German given name ''Irmtraut'', ''Irmentrud'' (equivalent to Anglo-Saxon ''Ermendrud''), originally from the Germanic name elements '' Irmin'' (a Germanic god, son of Mannus) plus '' thrud'' "strength". The variant ''Ehrmantraut'' suggests a folk etymological connection to '' ehr-'' "honour". The derivation of German surnames from feminine given names is unusual, and at least the name ''Irmtraut'', but possibly also the ''Ermentraut'' varieties, is instead derived from the ''von Irmtraut'' (''von Ermetrode'') family, members of the German lower nobility, first recorded in 1215. In this case, ''Irmtraut'' is a locational surname, derived from the name of the Irmtraut, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

German Given Name
Personal names in German-speaking Europe consist of one or several given names (''Vorname'', plural ''Vornamen'') and a surname (''Nachname, Familienname''). The ''Vorname'' is usually gender-specific. A name is usually cited in the " Western order" of "given name, surname", unless it occurs in an alphabetized list of surnames, e.g. " Bach, Johann Sebastian". In this, the German conventions parallel the naming conventions in most of Western and Central Europe, including English, Dutch, Italian, and French. There are some vestiges of a patronymic system as they survive in parts of Eastern Europe and Scandinavia, but these do not form part of the official name. Women traditionally adopted their husband's name upon marriage and would occasionally retain their maiden name by hyphenation, in a so-called '' Doppelname'', e.g. "Else Lasker-Schüler". Recent legislation motivated by gender equality now allows a married couple to choose the surname they want to use, including an option ...
