You are right - Mensch is german for Human.

The name is Arthur Mensch and he comes from France. Odd to have this as last name in France.

It's really not. Even without considering Alsace Lorraine, there is a lot of people with German origin in France. In general, it's very common to see people with family name from Spain, Italy, … And also from the old colonies / protectorate like Lebanon or Vietnam.
