Troisi is Italian in Origin.

Troisi is an Italian surname-turned-given name rooted in southern Italy, notably Campania. Onomastic studies often link it to the Old French toponym de Troyes, introduced during Angevin rule in the 13th century; in this reading, it means “one from Troyes (Champagne).” Others derive it from a medieval personal name Troisio/Troise shaped by that toponym. As a given name, Troisi reads modern and unisex, chosen to signal Italian heritage.

Its footprint as a forename is scarce, but usage has grown slightly in the diaspora, buoyed by famed Neapolitan actor-director Massimo Troisi (1953–1994). Variants include Troise, Troisio, De Troise, and De Troisi; French Troyes and English Troy are related by history or adaptation. The name carries a toponymic sense of origin and, by association, a creative, witty aura.
