Alba Family History
Alba Name Meaning
Spanish, Italian, and Romanian: habitational name from any of the
places named in any of these languages with this element. Its meaning
is various and disputed; the coincidence in form with Latin
alba (feminine) ‘white’ is suggestive, but in many cases the
name is pre-Roman and denotes a site on a hill or mountain.
