Pantling Family History

Pantling Surname Meaning

Possibly from an unrecorded Middle English form of the Continental Germanic personal name seen in Pant with a diminutive or patronymic suffix -ling; but the dates of the records suggest post-medieval immigration.

In this case, it might be a SW German form of the Italian given name Pantaleone.
