I was wondering if anyone knows what this name means or is a variant of? I believe it is German but may be Romanian.

You are right: this surname is still beared in Germany, in fact it is very local. Wieprich it is a little bit more spread, but still local.
I ignore the meaning.
Rather than in Romania this surname was (or still is) probably Hungarian, see the Ellis Island records: www.ellisisland.org
