ORMELLA

Very rare it would seem typical of the upper Caserta, it is difficult to identify its origin, it can be assumed that it can derive from a nickname linked to a characteristic of the place of origin, perhaps the presence of one or more elms, there is also the possibility that it may be of French origin and deriving from the Norman name Ormelus or Ormele, we find for example the Norman Ormelus Gulden in 1100
