Ramo means "branch". Streets named ramo refer to a smaller street branching off of a larger street. These Streets frequently lead to a dead end (Canal). Often times the name of a ramo will include the name of the Street it is branched off of. Ramo was one of the earliest types of street names used in Venice.[1]
