Meaning and background
The story behind Marturano
Marturano is a southern Italian surname probably derived from a settlement in Catanzaro province. The dictionary names Martirano and Marturano Lombardo as the two proposed locations. Because the entry marks the habitational analysis as probable, the geographical connection should keep that qualification. It supports a specific Calabrian family-name background without supplying a literal translation for the whole spelling or evidence that every bearer descends from one town.
