Pradella

Pradella is a surname of Italian origin. It is primarily found in the northern regions of Italy, particularly in Lombardy and Veneto. The name is thought to derive from a topographical name, referring to someone who lived near a pradella, which is a diminutive of prado, meaning meadow or small field. Thus, Pradella likely originally designated someone from or associated with a small meadow. The surname can also appear with variations in spelling.
