Help[Facts] Majella is a saint's surname...
in reply to a message by DOM
St. Gerard Majella, very popular with Catholics.
Majella is often used as a girl's name in Ireland.
Other popular surnames of saints:
Chantal - St. Jeanne-Francoise de Chantal
Vianney - (can't remember the first name of this saint)
Bosco - St. John Bosco.
There are more, I believe, but they are mostly used on the continent (Italy, France, Spain).
My sister knows an Irish couple whose names are Bosco and Carmel - how Catholic can you get? :D
