It is derived from the word "estopine," referring to a plug or stopper, and likely denoted someone who made or sold stoppers, or potentially someone who lived near a place where stoppers were made. The name is relatively rare. Individuals with the Estopinal surname are found primarily in the United States and, to a lesser extent, in France.
