Stallner

Stallner is a surname of German origin. It is believed to derive from the Middle High German word "stalnære," meaning "stableman" or "hostler." This suggests a historical occupational origin, indicating that early bearers of the name were likely employed in tending to horses or managing inns. The name is found in various German-speaking regions and has also been adopted by individuals and families who have emigrated from these areas. Over time, variations in spelling may have emerged due to regional dialects and transcription practices during periods of migration. The surname Stallner is not exceptionally common but can be found in genealogical records and population registries across Germany, Austria, and other countries with German heritage. Its prevalence is likely tied to historical agricultural and travel-related occupations.
