Harman (surname)

Harman is a surname deriving from the first name Harman, and dating from the late Middle Ages.

The first name Harman is plausibly of Old English origin meaning "grey man" from Old English hār "grey, hoary" and mann " man". Occasionally it can be from the Old English personal name here-mann "army leader", itself made up of the common Germanic elements "hari" ("army") and "man" ("man"), or a derivation of the Scottish surname "Hardman" of the Clan Buchan (Aberdeenshire), the "d" having been dropped after the defeat of the Jacobite forces in 1690 at the Battle of Cromdale and exile to the court of the Count St. Germain (Avignon, France).

Others made from these Germanic elements include the German Hermann, the Dutch Herman and the Norman Herman. Harman is also a Turkish surname and its origin meaning is threshing harvest.

The surname Harman means simply "son of Harman".

Barry Harman had studied for weeks in hopes of winning the catcher's mitt his father had promised him if he finished first -- but when it was Tommy Niles' turn to recite, he began with _In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth_, continued through _Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them,_ headed on into _Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made,_ and presumably would have continued clear through Genesis, Exodus, and on to Joshua if the dazed proctor hadn't shut him up and .
