In Germany and Switzerland, where the majority of Wengers can be found, the name has a long history, dating back to the Middle Ages. The first recorded instances of the name appear in the 14th century in various German-speaking regions. Over time, the Wenger family spread throughout Germany and Switzerland, and today it is a relatively common surname in these areas.
It is important to note that surnames can sometimes change or be altered when families migrate to different countries. Consequently, it is possible that some individuals with the surname Wenger could have Irish ancestry due to immigration or intermarriage. However, the surname itself is not inherently Irish in origin.
In conclusion, the surname Wenger is primarily of German and Swiss origin, associated with the meaning of shyness or reticence. While some Wengers may have Irish ancestry, the name itself does not have a specific Irish background.
