Origin notes

Origin and meaning

The surname De Marchi is chiefly found in Northern Italy, notably in the Veneto region, with additional presence in Lombardy and Piedmont. The variant De Marchis is typical of Lazio, especially around Rome and Latina provinces. Demarchi appears mainly in Piedmont, with small groups in Liguria, Trentino, and near Gorizia and Trieste. The very rare Demarchis likely originates from the Asti area, while De Marco is widespread across Italy, and Demarco is primarily linked to the Bari region. All these forms derive from the Latin name Marcius, which was a populous Roman clan name, signifying members of the Marchi family lineage.
