del Vecchio Surname Meaning

From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history

(from a personal characteristic) The oldest Italian Jewish families traced their descent from a number of families who had been brought to Rome by Titus after the destruction of Jerusalem and who remained there. These families are, in Italian, Rossi (“reds”), Adolescenti (“youths”), Pomis (“apples”), and Anav (“humble,”

in Hebrew). (The Anav families took on Italian versions of their names, Pietosi and Piatelli.) Another old family was named Bethel in Hebrew, which was translated to the Italian Casadio (“house of God”) and Degli Mansi (“of the house”) and De Synagoga (bet hakneset, in Hebrew). However, there was one family that traced its descent to Jews who were in Rome before Titus, and these called themselves del Vecchio, which means “old-timers” in distinction from the newcomers.
