I think HELMINGER is a personal name derived from the place-name Helming. As far as I can see, there are three places by that name in Germany and they are all located in Bavaria. The place-name again probably goes back to a personal name with the Germanic element "Helm" (helmet), like Helmfried or Helmbrecht. I wouldn't get confused by the double L.
Hope this helps.

well...
Some of the meanings are wrong and some of them are not. It's better than one of my baby names books though, so I have to give it some credit.

Lol . . .
. . . that's not saying much, given some of the shockers of name books that I've seen.
"sometimes accurate" doesn't equal "accurate". And the odd points of accuracy don't excuse the massive mis-information that sites like that perpetrate.
Compared to the painstaking accuracy - and acknowledgement of missing knowledge - at BtN, babynames.com is just mush.
But I'm sure you know that! :-D
