About the Romani Surname

A coat of arms belongs to a particular family line rather than to everyone named Romani, so the heraldry linked to Romano is a starting point, not an automatic right.

Meaning of the name

Romani is how some branches of the Romano family came to write their name. The name is habitational, pointing to “From Rome”.

How the spelling arose
