Reppou Surname Meaning
The Greek surname Reppou (Ρέππου) is the genitive or feminine form of Reppos (Ρέππος), likely derived from an older personal name or regional nickname. The root Rep-/Repp- does not correspond securely to a single standard modern Greek word and may preserve Albanian, Aromanian, Italian, or other Balkan and Mediterranean linguistic influence. It may also represent a shortened form of a longer ancestral personal name. The surname likely originated from an ancestor locally known as Reppos, with Reppou subsequently becoming established as the corresponding feminine or genitive hereditary family form through lineage continuity.
