What does "Leubner" a german name mean or if there are any german words similar tell me I need to know

I am pretty sure the name is referring to a geographical origin of the family. There are two towns called "Leuben" in Saxony, one in the district of Mei脽en, another one is now a suburb of Dresden. "Leubner" just means "someone from Leuben". The placename in its turn is of Slavic origin, originally "Luben", from Sorbian "luby"


meaning "dear".

Same goes for me....born and raised in Germany. The name "Leubner" doesn't mean or stand for anything.
Reply:I am German, grew up there. I don't know of any special meaning - just a name - and I don't know any similar german words. Sorry!
Reply:You can probably find your genealogy, but you might note that the spelling of your name has been Anglicized because the "-eu-" part should be a u with an umlaut, or two little dots above it. That character doesn't appear in English of course.
