Crosato

Crosato is a surname, primarily found in regions of Italy and derived from Italian dialects. It is likely a patronymic or toponymic surname, meaning it originated from a given name of an ancestor (patronymic) or from a place name (toponymic).

The origin of the name is likely tied to the Italian word "croce," meaning "cross." This could indicate an ancestor lived near a prominent cross (perhaps a religious marker or a crossroads), or that the name is linked to the given name Croce (Cross). Another potential origin is a place name containing "croce," such as a locality named after a prominent cross.
