* Athena Zouvella from Zakynthos, Greece 1922 [http://www.ellisisland.org/search/matchMore.asp?LNM=ZOUVELLA&PLNM=ZOUVELLA&kind=exact&offset=0&dwpdone=1] Zouvella from Zakynthos is the closest spelling to Xuvella. I assume that the Greek source was '''Zouvelos''' (Ζουβέλος). With the arrival of the Republic of Venice in the coastal area (Greece), it is possible that the old Venetian influence made it Zouvella (modern Zouvela).
