It comes from the area of TERAMO. a little city from ABRUZZO region, an area from where rhe families of many italian-american personalities have come: families of Dean Martin, John Fante, Perry Como. Rocky Marciano.
This surname is now very rare in Italy. Its original meaning is not clear. It comes probably from a regional word "pincio" or "pinco" which has different meanings and could indicate a silly person too.
