PENNER

Typical of Besenello and Lavarone (TN) and of nearby Trento, it should derive from the Germanic name Benno (Penno), of which we have an example in Milan in 1182 in a Carta commutacionis: "... Ibique aderant Benno qui dicitur Curto et Guido qui dicitur Capello, vassalli predicti monasterii et estimatores, here estimaverunt suprascriptas terras de loco Bagnolo, que sunt pertice sexaginta ... ", with the patronymic -er final the surname would be for the son of Benno or Penno, of the use of both forms here is an example for Penno: "" ... hi fuerant: Penno dux saxoniae, Adelbero dux Histriae, Hezzilo dux Baioarise ... ". additions provided by Giovanni Vezzelli The surname Penner originates from Lavarone and Folgaria and derives from the term cimbro" penna "=" cestone, gerla ". It is also a term found in the Tyrolean dialects (with penne and penn shapes) and derives from the Celtic" bucket ", originally indicating the typical four-wheeled Gallic cart. substance, you should dunqu and report to the profession of pannier manufacturer. However, Lorenzi doubts that this is the surname of a professional name and instead assumes its derivation from the Germanic personal name Benno, Penno, with the patronymic suffix -er. As a curiosity, we can add that in modern German 'Penner' means 'vagabond, wanderer'.
