Family name origins & meanings

  • Italian : nickname from vero ‘real’, ‘true’ (from Latin verus).
  • Italian : possibly from a variant of the Germanic personal name Bero, related to bera ‘bear’.
  • Romanian : unexplained.
  • Hungarian (Verő) : from ver ‘hit’, ‘strike’, hence an occupational name probably for a smith or someone who worked with hammer.
