About Hermien
Hermien, a Dutch name, is a phonetic variation of Hermine. This Germanic name, composed of the Old High German elements "harjaz" (army, army leader, commander, warrior) and "*mann-" (man), signifies "warrior" or "fighter".
The Old High German "man" is related to "mundō" (protector, protection, tutelage, guardianship), a connection evident in the Old Norse name Hermundr. Notable historical figures bearing the name include Hermann of Reichenau, an 11th-century scholar and composer, and Arminius, a Germanic chieftain who led his people to victory in the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest. The name is further associated with Rinaldo, a valiant warrior from Italian poet Torquato Tasso's epic Gerusalemme liberata.
