I grew up just downwind of a tannery. When the weather gods were hostile, the stench was beyond dreadful. So I'm afraid I can't imagine Tanner as a given name.

That said, if we were very lucky the wind would change slightly and then we got the smells of a flour mill and a bakery - much nicer, but not nice enough for me to endorse Miller or Baker as given names either.
