Laggouretou Surname Meaning
The Greek surname Laggouretou (Λαγγουρέτου) is the genitive or feminine form of Laggouretos (Λαγγουρέτος), likely derived from an older regional personal or descriptive nickname. The Laggour-/Langour- root may preserve Italian, Venetian, Albanian, Aromanian, or other Mediterranean vocabulary and is not transparent in standard modern Greek. A connection with a western personal name or geographic designation is possible. Laggouretou therefore represents the corresponding feminine or family form after an ancestor known as Laggouretos gave his distinctive personal or regional designation to the household.
