Origin and meaning

Marcon is a surname strongly linked to Veneto. Like other surnames in the same onomastic family, it comes directly or through diminutive and related medieval forms from the Latin praenomen Marcus, including forms such as Marchettus. It is therefore a family name of ancient personal-name origin, which later spread in Italy mainly through northern and north-central forms. Related surnames such as Marchetti, Marchetto, Marconi, Marchi and Marcone show the wide development of this patronymic stock.
