Talk:Human (surname)

German?
I've lived in Germany all my life and I've never met or heard of anyone who was called "Human". Now, that doesn't mean it can't exist, but I really doubt it. Might this be an Anglicised version of "Homann" (which is a fairly common name in Germany)? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.204.97.223 (talk) 04:05, 11 September 2016 (UTC)

Yes. It dropped an n from Hümann when they sailed here with the Dutch East India Company, at the end of the 17th century. Gerberman (talk) 21:53, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
