Capacchi is specific to the Parma area, now present in Palanzano and Parma, it should derive from an altered form of the head term (head, he who commands), perhaps thus indicating in the progenitor one with a big head or one who occupied a prominent position. The coat of arms would seem to propose a distant Jewish origin (the three six-pointed stars), which was followed by a conversion (the hand raised as a sign of oath). The Capacchi were feudal lords of Vairo in the Parma area and of Vallisnera in the Reggio area.
