Endres is a German surname. The name is well established and quite distinguished in the Franconia region in the Southern German State of Bavaria. This area is likely where the name originated, as there are also spelling variations in this area such as Endress, and more rarely Endrass. Although the name is not restricted to this area exclusively, as families have moved over the centuries to other regions within Germany, the majority are still found in Franconia and the southern and western areas of Germany.
