Orihuela Surname Meaning

Topographical surname. Two villages in Eastern Spain are called 'Orihuela', the big one with almost 100,000 inhabitants near the Mediterranean Sea rounding the Segura River and the little one with only 500 inhabitants located inside the Iberian Mountains; both probably of Roman origin.
The variant 'Oriola' is the Catalan/Valencian name for the southern city, and it exists mainly because the area of that city has been populated with people of catalan origin in late middle ages (not so the little one).
