Subject: My mn, Hermanna - meaning?

My middle name is Hermanna, I was named after my late grandmother. She was Dutch, so I'm assuming this is a Dutch name, but I've never heard this name anywhere else.
Does anyone know the meaning of it? I've speculated that it is just a feminine version of Herman, but I'm not too sure.
Oh, and it's pronounced Her-MAHN-ah.

See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I wait for you

Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait without you
