It is a pretty old Dutch name, yes.

And before anybody asks about me last name. No, it is not derived from Hi-jinx or what ever. It orginated in midevil times with free farmers in the eastern part of the Netherlands. I can't garantee however that Hi-jinx is not derived from Hijink, however. The free farmers certainly would have pissed of a few people back then, being rich in their fortified homesteads, owning their own lands with no adherence to nobility or other bossy folk.
