In German, von is a preposition which approximately means 'of' or 'from'.
When it is used as a part of a German family name, it can indicate a member of the nobility, like the French, and Portuguese "de". At certain times and places, it has been illegal for anyone who was not a member of the nobility to use von before their family name. However, in the Middle Ages the "von" particle was still a common part of names and was widely used also by commoners.

Get the Vonmug. 1:A guy who understands a girls feelings more so than her own. He can make anyone laugh and brighten someone's day by the smallest things. He is usually characterized by artistic abilities, being a nerd, and is incredibly smart. A Von is the best guy to talk to because he will listen. Be careful when you meet a Von because he might steal your heart (for girls only).
