Where did the German Huner family come from? What is the German Huner family crest and coat of arms? When did the Huner family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Huner family history?

The ancient and distinguished German surname Huner is of patronymic origin, deriving from the first name of the father of the original bearer. Huner comes from "Huno," which is a personal name of unclear origin; it may be derived from "Hun," the name of the Asiatic race of nomads who ravaged Europe during the 5th century, or from "Hunn," the Old Norse diminutive meaning "little bear."

Spelling variations of this family name include: Hunn, Hun, Hunne, Hunel, Hundt and others.

First found in Swabia, where the name is thought to have emerged. The name dates back as far as 1270, when Rudi Huno was working as a tax collector in Basel. The young Huner family was instrumental during this formative period, figuring prominently in the early history of the region and contributing greatly to the development of medieval Swabian society.
