Lekman

Lekman is a surname of Swedish origin. It is believed to be derived from the Swedish word "lekman," meaning "layman" or "non-cleric." As a surname, it likely originated as an occupational name for someone who was involved in church affairs but was not a member of the clergy, or perhaps as a nickname for someone who was considered uneducated or unskilled in clerical matters.

The surname Lekman is found predominantly in Sweden and other Nordic countries, and among diaspora communities of Swedish descent.

While less common than some other Swedish surnames, Lekman has a recognizable presence and history within the Swedish linguistic and cultural landscape. Variations in spelling may exist, though "Lekman" is the most prevalent form.
