MOTTER

Motter is typical of the area of Tenna and Pergine Valsugana, it should derive from the Ladin word motera which means large cumulus or small hill, perhaps identifying a characteristic of the place of origin or habitation of the family, according to others it could derive from nicknames originating from mæ-dar term of the new high German meaning mother.
