LO | LOPARCO | PARCO

The park, which is absolutely rare, with some rare presence in the Brindisi, Tarentina area, should be an altered form of the surname Loparco, which is typically Pugliese, in particular of Cisternino and Ostuni in Brindisi, of Locorotondo in the Bari area, of Martina Franca in the area of Taranto and, in the Brindisi area, also of Fasano, Ceglie Messapica, San Vito dei Normanni and Carovigno, and that should derive from a nickname based on the term park, which has the meaning of saver, frugal, but also of stingy and stingy, to identify perhaps thus a particular attitude of the progenitor.
