Eccardt Family Crest & Name History

Long before computers fixed spellings, Eccardt and Eckardt were used side by side.

At root, the name means “From Eckhart ("hard edge")”. Only a small detail separates the spellings: Eccardt has “c” where Eckardt has “k”. Before spelling was standardised, one family could appear under several forms. Related forms: Eckerdt and Eggardt.
