Meaning & History

Medieval Dutch form of Hagiman. In that era, Heyman was sometimes also used as a pet form of Hendrick.

This name is still in use today, but it is rare and slightly less common than its modern form Heiman.

A known bearer of this name was Heyman Dullaert (1636-1684), a Dutch painter and poet who was a student of the famous Dutch painter Rembrandt van Rijn (1606-1669).
