Hann Name Meaning
German and Dutch: from a shortened pet form of the personal name Johann (see John ). English: from the Middle English personal name Hann commonly a pet form of Henry (Middle English Hanry). Hann could also be a rhyming pet form of Randolph (Middle English Randal shortened to Ran or Rand).
