Vannino Surname Meaning

User-submitted Reference

This surname derives from modifications of the apheresis of the name John (from the Hebrew Yehohanan, meaning 'God has had mercy', 'gift of God'). One principle of these cognomizations is in the second half of the 1300s with the Sienese painter Francesco di Vannuccio. The surname Vanni is typical of Tuscany, but is present throughout the center and in eastern Liguria. Vannino, almost unique, is probably due to transcription errors. Vannuccini, less common, is typical of the area between Siena and Arezzo.
