Cavacciuti, absolutely rare, seems typical of the border area between Piacenza and Parma, Cavazzuti is typical of Modena, should derive from a dialect nickname. additions provided by Alberto Cavazzuti the surname Cavazzuti should derive from a nickname originated from the scapigliatura or cavazza (crown of trees in Modena dialect), as far as the Piacenza derivation is concerned, given that we live there seems strange, here the double z does not exist and my surname is methodically crippled in Cavacciuti. My father told me that in 700 due to a migration due to religious reasons (escape !!) many people from Modena took refuge in a mountain village in the Piacenza area. There is a trace in the cemetery, where the surname is crippled in Cavacciuti precisely because of this difficulty in pronouncing the z. additions provided by Giovanni Vezzelli On the surname Cavazzuti it seems to me important to point out what the prof. F. Violi, recently deceased, the greatest scholar of toponymy, onomastics and Modena dialectology in his essay Surnames in Modena and Modenese, Aedes Muratoriana, Modena, 1996: "Cavazzuti is one of the most represented surnames in Modena, in Carpi and in the media plain, while it is almost absent in the mountains and in the lower Modena area.The most ancient attestation of the name is found in an act of the bishop of Modena Fredulfo of 1135. Among the neighboring lands given in emphyteusis to Martino di Freto a Geminianus Cavacutus is mentioned and properties of a Cavacutus are mentioned, again in that of Freto, in 1176 and in 1187 in Modenese capitular documents.It is not unlikely that the personal name Cavacutus is corruption of Cavazochus, documented in Modena in 1171 and earlier in the Cavazochi (1156) and Cavazocho (1160), indicating the activity of "cavar trunks, tree stumps"; from the Middle Ages zoccus (stump) ".
