Origin notes
Origin and meaning
The surname Ermini is mainly found in Tuscany, particularly in the provinces of Florence, Arezzo, and Siena, as well as in southern Marche, Umbria—especially around Terni—and central-northern Lazio, notably Rome. The variant Erminia is almost unique and likely stems from a transcription error of Ermini. The very rare Erminio has a historical presence in Andria, Apulia. These surnames are probably linked to the Roman patrician gens Herminia, which likely has Oscan or Etruscan roots, or to the Roman gentilicial name Herminius.
