Where did the Spanish Ariel family come from? What is the Spanish coat of arms/family crest? When did the Ariel family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the history of the family name?

Noble surnames, such as Ariel, evoke images of the ancient homeland of the Spanish people. The original bearer of the name Ariel, which is a local surname, once lived, held land, or was born in the beautiful region of Spain. In Spain, hereditary surnames were adopted according to fairly general rules and during the late Middle Ages, names that were derived from localities became increasingly widespread. Local names originally denoted the proprietorship of the village or estate. Many Spanish local names reflect Arabic words or place-names because Spain was conquered by the Muslim Moors from the 8th to 12th centuries. The Ariel family originally lived on a patch of stony soil in Basque. The surname Ariel originally derived from Arri which referred to stone.

Spelling variations of this family name include: Arrieta, de Arrieta, Arriola, de Arriola, Arriolas, Arreola and many more.

First found in the Basque region of northern Spain.
