Meaning & History
My great-great grandmother's name was Patrizia Maria Lattanzio. After she passed and my Great-grandmother sent my grandmother to America, the officials mis-spelled her name on her documents and the last name was shortened to Lattanzi. They also changed her first and middle name to Americanize it. My Grandmothers American name was Patricia Marie Lattanzi and my Mom is Deborah Paula Lattanzi.
