Look up Kettner in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.

Kettner (Czech feminine: Kettnerová) is a surname of German origin. It means 'chain maker', but there is a theory that the surname could be a Czechization of other German words – Kötner (i.e. 'cottager', 'small field owner'), or from Gärtner ('gardener'). Another theory suggests that the surname could refer to someone from a place called Ketten or Garten.[1] Notable people with the surname include:
