[Surname] Re: Juniel
Nickel in German names does not refer to the chemical element but is a short form of Nikolaus. However, I didn't find evidence that the original name, Juniel, is of German origin. It is not featured on this high quality site of German names: https://www.namenforschung.net/dfd/woerterbuch/liste/ (Jungnickel is featured there, btw.)
