GALLUCCI

Gallucci (Italian: [ɡalˈluttʃi]) is an Italian surname which can also be found in the Italian diaspora. The family name is most prevalent in the Italian regions Campania, Lazio and Lombardy. In Campania the name is toponymic and derived from the municipality of Galluccio as well as connected to the Principality of Capua (900–1156), while in Lazio it can be traced back to the Latin name Gallutius. It should be distinguished from the similar names Galluccio, Galluzzi and Galluzzo.
