The distinguished and ancient German surname Hidler is of several possible origins. Firstly, it is derived from "hidl," a Bavarian word meaning "stream that dries up temporarily"; in this instance, the name would have been originally borne by someone living close to such a stream. Alternatively, the name is derived from the personal name "Hitt," which is itself derived from the Old High German word "Heldis," meaning "struggle." Finally, the name may be a variant of the surname "Huttler" or "Hutter," both derived from the German word "Hüttler," meaning "carpenter."
