Adler
[ˈæd.lər]Meaning
from a German surname meaning "eagle"
Background Story
Adler comes from a German surname meaning "eagle". The German word descends from Middle High German adler, adelar, adelare, formed from edel ("noble") and Aar ("eagle"). When Aar took on the broader sense of a bird of prey used in hunting or falconry, the fuller form Adelaar (edler Aar) came into use to distinguish eagles from falcons and hawks.
