The haapala Surname
haapala Name Meaning and History
Finnish: from haapa ‘aspen’ + the local suffix
-la. Originally it was a habitational name for someone living
or working at a farmstead so named, but in other cases the surname was
an ornamental adoption during the name conversion movement in the 19th
and early 20th centuries. It occurs chiefly in western Finland.
