Where did the Italian Maria family come from? What is the Italian Maria family crest and coat of arms? When did the Maria family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Maria family history?
The name is Biblical in origin, coming from the Virgin Mary. The fact that the prefixes "De" and "Di" are often added to it suggest that it could be metronymic, that is, a surname originally derived from the name of the first bearer's mother, and meaning "son of Maria." This is rare in Italian names, generally such names were taken from the name of the father (patronymics). In some cases the children of widows or the illegitimate children of noblemen's mistresses took the mother's name for their surname.
