Etymology
* As a south German and Swiss/Alemannic German surname Böller, from several places named Boll, from both Middle High German bolle (“round container”) and Middle Low German bolle (“something ball-shaped”), ultimately from the root of bowl. * Also as a south German and Swiss German surname, from the obsolete Middle High German bollen (“to bluster”), perhaps imitative. * Also as a German surname, from a Low German shortening of Baldwin. * As a Hungarian surname Böllér, from the noun böllér “butcher, pigsticker”.
