These pages have been sitting in the clean-up section for a while, I think because people are unsure what to do with them. If anyone sees something that needs looking at, please correct it or add onto the discussion page the reason for tagging. For the moment, I've removed the tags as I can see little further to clean.

Abreu, Dominican Republic

[edit]

I just ran across a reference to a location with the name Abreau in the Dominican Republic:

Abreu

[edit]

It is possible to say that Abreu/Abreo and its variants come from the Germanic name Aubri or Aubra and it means power or strength. Abreu/Abreo is a surname of Catalan and French origin and it has a variant in the French language that is Avredo or Abredo (= council of magicians or wise counselor). In the Anglo-Saxon languaje, there are some variants: Avory, Avery, Affery, Averies and Averay. There is also another possibility - this is documented- and this explains that Abreu and its variant D'Abreu, is a toponymic surname and its meaning is a native of Abruzzo, Italy. --Hope 22:00, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
