Help[Surname] Re: origin of the name Ornelas
in reply to a message by Menke
According to the spanish dictionary of surnames of Gutierre Tibon this surname should come from a name of a place "Ornelas" it is a town or a village near LUGO (Spain).
The italian first name Ornella has been invented recently by Gabriele D'Annunzio, so I am not sure that Ornelas cold come from this name.
Anyhow Ornelas or Ornellas exists mainly in Spain and South America, in Portugal it is extremely rare.
