Lörchner

Lörchner is a surname of German origin. It is believed to be a topographic surname, deriving from a place name. The root of the name likely comes from the Old High German word "lohr," meaning a marshy or boggy area, or a place with willows. Therefore, Lörchner would have originally referred to someone who lived in or near such a location.

The surname is most commonly found in German-speaking countries, particularly in Germany. Variations in spelling might exist due to regional dialects and historical record-keeping. As with many surnames, its exact origins and early spread are difficult to trace precisely due to a lack of comprehensive historical documentation from earlier centuries.

Genealogical research often reveals the presence of Lörchner families in different regions, participating in local economies and communities. The name continues to be carried by descendants in Germany and other parts of the world where German emigration has occurred.
