Where the Schneider name comes from

Schneider is the German word for a tailor, literally one who cuts, from the verb schneiden, to cut. It comes from the Middle High German snīdære, formed from schneiden with the agent ending -er. The surname began as an occupational name for a tailor. Yiddish shnayder, dated Dutch snijder and Afrikaans snyer are close relatives of the word.

Schröder and Schrödinger are other German counterparts of the English Taylor. Variant spellings include Snyder, Snider, Snijder in Dutch, Schnider in Swiss German, Sznajder in Polish and Snyman in Afrikaans. Schneider is a very common surname in Germany. The 2010 United States Census ranked it the 312th most common surname in the country, carried by 101,290 people.
