[Surname] “Crovador” surname origin
Hello! I got really curious over the meaning of my last name. Besides close family, I’ve never met anyone with the same last name in real life. I’ve seen a few profiles online and a murder case too, but that would be at most 5 other people. I tried looking into the origin of the name, the oldest document I could find was in Italy, 1800s, with multiple variations of the same name between siblings, those being “Crovadore” “Crovadori” “Cravador” “Corvador”. I also found a few names that are similar that could be possible variations such as “Crevdor” and “Crovdor”.I have absolutely no idea what this could mean. My first thought was that this was possibly related to the word “Crow”, but some of the variations seem closer to other meanings such as “Crowder”. If anyone has any idea or theories of the origin and behind this surname or it’s variations, I’d be extremely happy. It seems to be a pretty rare surname, which makes me very curious considering my other surnames are very mundane and common.
