Name Meaning

English (Warwickshire): perhaps an agent derivative of Middle English crane ‘machine for lifting’, hence an occupational name denoting a crane-operator, although this use of craner is not recorded until the 19th century. The surname does not occur in English records before the mid 16th century, suggesting it may have originated elsewhere.

Americanized form of German Krahner, a variant of Krahn , or Kröner (see Kroner ).

Americanized form of Austrian German and Slovenian Kraner .
