My mother's maiden name is SCHWENKE. I know that it is German. Does anywone know if it means anything?
Also, my last name is MEYER it means "merchant of dairy products". Some German-English Dictionaries write that it is "farmer" or "dairy farmer" which is too symplistic. It can also be spelled "MEIER". Anyone ever heard of this? I have learned this from German speakers and would like some more confirmation.
