The history of the last name Badonie

The surname Badonie is believed to have originated in the region of Piedmont, Italy during the late 15th century. It is thought to derive from the Italian word "badone," which referred to a large barrel or cask used for storing wine or other liquids. The name may have been initially given as an occupational surname to someone who was involved in the production or transportation of these barrels.

One of the earliest recorded instances of the name Badonie can be found in a document from the city of Turin, dated 1492, which mentions a certain Giovanni Badonie, a cooper by trade. This suggests that the name was already established in the area at that time.

In the 16th century, the name appears to have spread to other parts of Italy, as evidenced by records from the city of Venice, where a merchant named Antonio Badonie is mentioned in a trade agreement from 1537.

One notable bearer of the name was Francesco Badonie, a renowned painter from the city of Genoa, who lived between 1590 and 1658. His works can still be found in various churches and galleries throughout northern Italy.

The Badonie family also had a presence in the Duchy of Savoy, with a record from 1612 mentioning a certain Giacomo Badonie, who served as a captain in the ducal army.

During the 17th and 18th centuries, some members of the Badonie family migrated to other parts of Europe, including France and Spain. For example, there is a record of a Jesuit priest named Pedro Badonie, who was born in Seville, Spain in 1678 and served as a missionary in South America.

Another notable figure was Carlo Badonie, an Italian architect who was born in Turin in 1725 and was responsible for designing several prominent buildings in his hometown, including the Chiesa di San Filippo Neri.
