  1. German and Dutch: variant spelling of Kranz.


  2. "Kranz" in German means a wreath or garland. There's also a surname "Rosenkran(t)z", meaning "wreath/garland of roses".

    Why anybody would get that surname is a question. Perhaps your ancestor was a florist who made and sold wreaths for a living.
