They all derive directly or through hypocorisms from the grecoanghelos (an implied messenger of God) which is found in the Latin angelus which becomes a auspicious name in medieval times. From the name to the surname as an attribute of God-fearing man or person linked to an angelic image painted near his home, the step is short. In some cases they derive from the medieval name Angelinus of which we have for example traces in the second half of the 1300s in this writing: "... Et ego Angelinus Agacia, natus quondam domini Georgii notarii Vercellensis, publicus imperiali auctoritate notarius, habitans Vercellis in parish Sancti Michaelis , thousandth three hundredth nonagesimo septimo, fifth index, die secundo mensis iunii, intravi collegium notariorum comunis Vercellarum ... ". Traces in Lombardy of the notable Angeloni family are to be found in Villa d'Adda (BG) since the 1400s, in Abruzzo, in Roccaraso (AQ), the 1600s of the Angeloni of the barons of Montemiglio are found; of the Angelini traces have been found in the Veneto region since the 14th century, with their registration to the nobility of Verona and Ala di Trento, documents drawn up by a notary Giovanpietro Angelini date back to the second half of the 1500s for more information on the Istrian branch of the Angelini http: / /www.digilander.iol.it/arupinum/
