Guantieri, very rare, is typical of Verona and the Veronese, Guantiero, absolutely rare, it would seem of the Veronese, should derive from an Italianization of the Lombard name Wandhari, composed of the terms wand (dexterity, agility) and hari (army), with the meaning of he who fights with dexterity, we must also consider the possibility, to tell the truth quite remote, that they can derive from the trade of glove makers or glove manufacturers, carried out by the founders. We find traces of these surnames in Verona in the early 1400s with the miles Paolo Filippo Guantieri, a patrician from Verona made knight by the Marquis Niccolò III °.
