Etymology
Eichmann comes from the German words Eiche 'oak' and Mann 'man', so it originally meant 'oak-man', a name for someone who lived by or worked near an oak tree. Today Eichmann is a family name, most widely known as the surname of the Nazi official who organised the transport of Jews to concentration camps during the Holocaust.
