Name Meaning

English: perhaps from an unrecorded Middle English personal name Banning, which might be a pet form of Old English Banna (see Bann 2).

Dutch and German: habitational name from a farm so named, which once belonged to a certain Banno and his kin. The personal name Banno is possibly a form of an ancient Germanic Bern- ‘bear’ name. The farm name Banning has been located in several places in Gelderland. In North America, this surname may also be an altered form of the Dutch cognate Bannink.

History: The Bannings were an important family in Amsterdam from the 15th century on. Rembrandt's famous painting The Night Watch (16th century) depicts the militia company of captain Frans Banning Cocq.
