Many German names have their roots in the Germanic middle ages. A name identified a specific person and later a group of persons (family name); at first through verbal usage, it was later fixed through writing. All social classes and demographic strata aided in the development of names.
Nyhart (german) appears to be derived from a German-Danish dialect. "Ny, Nye, Noie," from the Danish, meaning: exact, precise, nice, new, recently produced. From the Germanic element "hart," meaning: hard, hardy, brave. |
