Morlandi has a small stock in Florence, Morlando has a large stock in Sant'Antimo in the Neapolitan dialect, where it is also quite common in Giugliano di Campania, Naples, Melito di Napoli and Casandrino, and in the Caserta area of Capua and Aversa, it could derive from the name of French origin Morelandus, which we find in a book by Leibnitz: "... Morelandus in book de elevandis aquis promittit tubam cujus ope verba loquentis ab distantiam sex Leucarum Gallicarum distincte audiri possint ...", traces of these surnames in Sant'Antimo we find them in an act of 1600: "... If the said Jacovo Turco if he fell ill with the spatio of said five years, in this case for the spatio of ten tantum days Scipione Morlando, that is in the term of said five years .... ", and in the 1700s of the Morlandos are mentioned as confreres in deeds of the Confraternity of the Blessed Sacrament always of San'Antimo.
