Quite rare it would seem to have two stocks, one between Milan and Bergamo and one in Abruzzo between Pescara and Chieti, the Lombard lineage should derive from the toponym Calco (CO), noble family of which we have traces since 1277, when Ottone Visconti inscribed it in the Serial number of the Ordinaries of the Metro, in 1400 we find a Bartolomeo Calchi private secretary of Ludovico il Moro, in 1578 the Calchi were admitted to the Milanese Patriciate. A hypothesis on the origin of the surname refers to the fact that Strabo historian and Greek geographer (63 BC - 19 AD), writes that, in order to repopulate after the expulsion of the Gauls the territory from Lake Como to the river Adda, the Romans have transferred in that area a certain number of Greeks from the island of Calchi (Colcide) of the Aegean Sea.
