The Piccio family is a family of Portuguese Jewish origin. It has established branches in Italy,[5][6][7][8] the Philippines and Turkey.[1][2] Members also reside in fewer numbers in other countries.[9][10]
The current form of the family’s name is an Italianized standardization by notaries in Rome of [ˈpiɟu],[1][2] which in turn was a Turkified rendering of the original Portuguese Figo (pronounced [ˈfiɣu]).[1][5]
