Verhaegen is a Dutch-language toponymic surname common in the Belgian provinces of Antwerp and Flemish Brabant. Though, like Verhagen, meaning "from the bushland or hedged lot", at least the name of the noble family of Pierre-Théodore Verhaegen finds its origin in the town of Haacht (originally meaning "hedge" as well). Some other variant spellings of the name are Verhaagen, Verhaeghe, Verhaeghen, Verhage, and Verhaghen. People with the name include:
