Best Answer

Wiens possibly comes from Austria or thereabouts and means "From Vienna," however "Wien" in plautdietsch means "wine" so it also could be derived from that meaning in the areas where people spoke Low German. I would tend to lean toward the latter, as I know some people with the last name Wiens and they are of Mennonite heritage, and plautdietsch is a commonly spoken language amongst Old Colony Mennonites.
