About the Stricker surname

It may be of occupational origin, derived from the Middle High German word 'Strick' meaning 'rope'; thus the name would denote 'a rope maker'. In time, this also came to denote 'one who knitted and sold stockings.' Alternatively, the name may be of nickname origin, referring to Galgenstrick (gallows rope), denoting someone who belonged on the gallows, that is, a rascal, a scamp or a good for nothing.
