TEOFILI | TEOFILO

Teofili is typically the Latium of Rome and Borbona in the Rietino, Teofilo is specific of the Barese, of Polignano A Mare, Bari, Bitonto and Conversano, should derive from the medieval name Theophilus (who loves God), of which we have an example in a Charta Donationis of the year 762 Preserved in the state Archive of Venice: "... Ego Theophilus indignus monachus Sanctorum Apostolorum rogatus ab Erfone for Iussu domni Siluestri abbatis in Hanc cartam manu mea own subscripsi. ... ", we recall with this name the writer Mantovano Gerolamo Folengo more known as Theophilus (1491-1544).
