Gauci
Gauci is a surname in use mainly in the Republic of Malta belonging to one of the most ancient and noble families on the island. It originates from the word ''Għawdxi'' (; meaning ''Gozitan''), in reference to a man from Gozo. According to the ''Dictionary of American Family Names'', it originated in Italy, flourished in Malta and from Malta spread to the UK, US, Canada and Australia with the Maltese diaspora; this would be due to the immigration (and also exile) of large numbers of people from Italy to Malta, although the name still appears in Italy. However, according to Professor Joseph Aquilina, Malta's foremost specialist in Maltese etymology and author of the encyclopaedic ''Maltese–English Dictionary'', the surname is a Maltese original formation, originating in the medieval notarial transcription of the word "''Għawdxi''", meaning Gozitan or from the island of Gozo. As such, "''Għawdxi''" is a nickname frequently given to Gozitans living or working in Malta. Thi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
