Loller History, Family Crest & Coats of ArmsThe origins of the distinguished surname Loller are somewhat obscure. The name is most likely related to the Middle Dutch word "lollaerd," meaning "babbler of nonsense"; alternatively, it is possible that the name is connected to the early Middle English word "lollere," meaning "mumbler," a name applied to a pious person. "Loller" was substituted in the 14th century for "Lollard" as a description of the followers of John Wyclif, an English Bible translator who was condemned as a heretic. 1 Early Origins of the Loller familyThe surname Loller was first found in East England, where the name is thought to have originated.
