About the Guarini Surname

The spelling Guarini grew out of Guarino, an Italian surname with a long paper trail. It grew out of a personal name: “from Guarino, a Germanic personal name”.

• Regional accents shaped spellings long before dictionaries fixed them.
• Related forms: Varino.
• Guarini and Guarino differ only in the final vowel; Italian surnames often appear in singular and plural versions.
