What is the meaning of the name Piccoli ?

The baby name Piccoli is a Unisex name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈpikkoli/ (PEE-KOH-lee).

Piccoli is Italian in Origin.

Piccoli is an Italian name formed from the plural of piccolo, “small, little,” so it literally means “little ones.” In Italy it has long functioned primarily as a hereditary surname derived from a medieval nickname for a person of slight stature, a younger family member, or the junior branch of a household. Records across northern and central Italy show it from the late Middle Ages, and the surname traveled widely with Italian migration to France, Switzerland, the Americas, and Australia.

As a given name, Piccoli is very rare and modern, usually chosen as a unisex, style-forward pick or to honor a family surname. Related forms and variants include the singular Piccolo, compounded surnames De Piccoli and Lo Piccolo, and nicknames Pico and Picco. The name carries warm Italian connotations - piccoli is a common term of endearment for children - and may also evoke the bright, high-voiced piccolo instrument.
