Spelling variations of this family name include: Naten, Natan, Natenberg, Natanberg, Natanburg, Natenson, Nathan, Nathanberg and many more.

First found in the Rhineland, where this family was a prominent contributor to the development of the district from ancient times. The name is an Ashkenazic/ Hebraic name which moved from central Germany to the Rhineland from the Hebrew given name Natan meaning 'Given', borne by a minor biblical prophet. From Johnathon, the name became an integral part of that turbulent region as it forged alliances with other families within the region and the nation.
