Fiedeler — Family Name, Records and Arms

Fiedeler is a familiar spelling of the German name Fiedler. The family name meaning is “Fiddle player”, the same as for Fiedler.

A coat of arms belongs to a particular family line rather than to everyone named Fiedeler, so the heraldry linked to Fiedler is a starting point, not an automatic right. Get the complete Fiedeler report, with a museum-style coat of arms.
