surname GEITZ
At the moment this surname is beared in Germany.
But is it really a german surname?
However it is local, rather local in Germany.
Could anyone explain me the origin of such a surname?
Thanks

The German word "Geiz" means "greediness". It would have come up as a byname for a greedy person. I have never heard of anyone by that name.
