Name origin: The original family name of Lovel, was in olden times. Percival, so called from a place in Normandy until Asceline, its chief, who flourished in the early part of the twelfth century, acquired from his violent temper the soubriquet of Lupus (the wolf); his son William, Earl of Yvery, was nicknamed Lupellus, the little wolf, which later was softened into Lupel, and at last to Luvel or Lovel.
