Flores is a Spanish, Italian and Portuguese surname.

History

In Spain, the surname Flores is first found in the Kingdom of Asturias, where the Visigothic royal court took refuge after the Muslim Invasion of the Iberian Peninsula in 711. In its origin, it is a patronymic of the Visigothic given name Fruela or Froila.

In Italy, the surname's roots can be traced back to the Kingdom of Naples around the early 14th century where records show a Flores family receiving land grants in the feudal territories of Persano and Sandionisio.

Variations

Spelling variations of this surname also include Fruélaz, Fruelaz, Froílaz, Froilaz, Florez, Flórez, Floriz, Flóriz, Floraz, Flóraz, Flor, Florán, Floran and Florián, among others.

Variations can also be found in several Florez coat-of-arms designs. The one similar feature many of these designs have in common is the fleur-de-lis, usually on a blue field, though varying in number from three to five, and possibly used in conjunction with other symbols.
