Asteroid 11348, Allegra, was discovered on January 30, 1997, by Maura Tombelli and Ulisse Munari at the Cima Ekar unit of Asiago Observatory near Asiago, Emilia-Romagna, Italy. It has a period of 4 years, 307 days.
It was named for Allegra Noccioli (born 1999), the daughter of Italian amateur astronomer Fabrizio Noccioli.
The female name Allegra is derived from the Italian word allegro, literally meaning "cheerful." "Allegro" is used as a direction in music meaning "quick and lively tempo."
Astrologically, asteroid Allegra seems to indicate what this might suggest quick, lively, energetic, swift, precocious, impetuous.
