Help[Surname] Re: Friedman and Schilare
in reply to a message by Mino Sagani
Friedmann is Jewish though I don't know if it is exclusively so. The language is German, the meaning "peace man". This may be an old German given name, but, as a Jewish name it is probably a translation of Shalom, "peace", which was a male forename as well as a greeting.
