English : occupational name for someone who constructed or repaired roofs, from an agent derivative of Middle English roof (Old English hrÅf). In the Middle Ages roofs might be thatched with reeds or straw, or covered with tiles, slates, or wooden shingles.German and English : nickname for an unscrupulous individual, from Middle Low German rÅver ‘pirate’, ‘robber’, Middle English rover. The English verb rove ‘to wander’ is probably a back-formation from this, and is not attested before the 16th century, so it is unlikely to lie behind any examples of the surname.German : variant of Röver (see Roever).

It may also be a topographic name for someone who lived in a damp area overgrown with reeds, or a metonymic occupational name for someone who gathered reeds, which were widely used in the Middle Ages as a floor covering, as roofing material, and for weaving small baskets.Southern Italian : either a habitational name from a place named Canè, in Bescia and Belluna, or more likely an occupational name for a basket maker or the like, from Greek kanna ‘reed’ + the occupational suffix -(e)as.French : Norman and Picard variant of chane a term denoting a particular type of elongated pitcher (ultimately from Latin canna ‘reed’), hence possibly a metonymic occupational name for a potter who specialized in making such jugs, or a nickname for someone who resembled one.Possibly an Americanized spelling of German Köhn (see Kuehn).
