A surname of Greek and Italian origin.
From the Greek, "poly" and "karpos" meaning 'many fruit'. This pertains to 'many children' or 'many offspring' instead of 'many plant genitalia'.
The family crest motif is yellow, black, and red-orange, featuring a large black eagle perched on a red-orange branch, set against a yellow background. The crest is of Greek origin, still popularly used by the descendant of the Pontian Greeks. The eagle, of course, is a symbol of strength, immortality, farsightedness, and courage. In mythology, Zeus often took on the form of an eagle.
Historians have speculated that the name 'Policarpio' derives from Saint Polycarp, once a bishop of Smyrna. Saint Polycarp was known to have many followers and disciples that travelled all over the world, hence the varying locations in which the surname 'Policarpio' are popular (Italy, Spain, the Philippines). His many followers may also explain why he has 'many fruit' because he considered his followers as his children.

There is a 'Policarpio Street' in the Philippines that is popular during Christmas due to its lavish decorations. This only proves how awesome this name is.

Get the thot police mug.The lowliest, douche-bagiest, most useless police department in the entire state of New Jersey. They hang out by the high school "speed trapping", what used to be "the grove" & most infamously the commuter parking lot. They can be found in groups of 2 or more congregating talking about their fat wives & their sucky lives.
They're good for nothing...well that is other than harrasing anyone between the ages of 16 & 25. They're great at giving tickets for stupid shit. Some say they can even smell when you're car is parked on the wrong side of the street on street cleaning day(s) from a mile away; well that or from the Dunkin Donuts.
They love breaking ...or attempting to break up parties because they were the kids who never got invited to any parties or got beaten up in high school.

"Nancy Pelosi's Gazpacho Police, spying on members of Congress..." complained Greene. A person of her erudition could not possibly have been confusing cold vegetable soup with the Gestapo, Hitler's secret force, tasked with sending people to the concentration camps.
