The history of the last name Ivone

The surname Ivone is of Italian origin, tracing its roots back to the medieval period. It is believed to have originated from the Italian town of Ivrea, located in the Piedmont region of northwestern Italy. The name Ivrea itself is derived from the ancient Roman name "Eporedia," suggesting that the surname Ivone may have connections to the area's Roman heritage.

One of the earliest recorded instances of the surname Ivone can be found in the "Codex Diplomaticus Cavensis," a collection of medieval documents from the Cava de' Tirreni monastery in Campania, Italy. This document, dated around the 11th century, mentions an individual named "Ioannes Ivone," providing evidence of the surname's existence during that time period.

In the 13th century, the "Libro de' Conti di Ser Ricovero Arnolfi," a historic account book from Florence, includes references to individuals with the surname Ivone. This suggests that the name had spread to other parts of Italy by that time.

Notably, the surname Ivone has been associated with several prominent historical figures. One such individual is Andrea Ivone, a renowned Italian architect and sculptor who lived in the 16th century (c. 1520-1586). He was known for his work on the Palazzo Reale in Naples and the Chiesa di Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan.

Another notable bearer of the surname was Giovanni Ivone, a 17th-century Italian painter and engraver (c. 1608-1675). He was active in Naples and is remembered for his religious paintings and engravings depicting biblical scenes.

In the 18th century, the name Ivone was associated with Domenico Ivone, an Italian architect and engineer (c. 1680-1754). He was involved in the construction of several significant buildings in Naples, including the Palazzo Reale and the Chiesa di San Francesco di Paola.

Moving into the 19th century, Vincenzo Ivone (1801-1873) was an Italian painter and sculptor who worked primarily in Naples. He was known for his religious artworks, including the statue of St. Michael the Archangel in the Chiesa di Santa Maria la Nova.

Finally, in the 20th century, Luigi Ivone (1904-1985) was an Italian lawyer and politician who served as a member of the Italian Parliament and held various ministerial positions during his career.

While the surname Ivone may have evolved and spread to different regions over time, its origins can be traced back to the ancient town of Ivrea in Piedmont, Italy, where it likely emerged during the medieval period, reflecting the area's rich cultural and historical heritage.
