Cignetti

Cignetti is an Italian surname, originating in the northern part of the country, particularly the regions of Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol and Veneto. The name is believed to be derived from a nickname based on a physical characteristic, possibly related to a swan ("cigno" in Italian). Variations of the name may include Cignetto and Cignotti. As a surname, it is associated with families who have historically resided in these regions for generations. Emigration patterns from Italy in the 19th and 20th centuries have resulted in the presence of the Cignetti surname in other countries, including the United States and Argentina.
