Quilici Family History

Quilici Surname Meaning

Italian: patronymic from the personal name Quilico, an old altered form of Quirico, which is derived from Quiricus, a variant of Latin Cyri(a)cus (see Cyriac and Cyr), a Christian saint's name.

However, the Italian name Quirico may actually be a blend of two Latin names, both borne by numerous early Christian saints: Quirinus (see Quirin) and Cyriacus (see Ciriaco).

Additionally, it is possibly a habitational name from Quilico in Torino province.
