Surnames: Ciufo, ciuffo,
In my search of family names and their meanings, I have found out that the name Ciufo comes from Ciuffo and Ciufffa . I have found out means "Forelock" - A lock of hair that grows from or falls on the forehead. Has anone else found this out? Does anyone have a different meaning for the word Ciufo?? Also is there any such coat of arms or family crest that anyone has come up with or happened upon.??

Any help would be great..

Dear Sam,
You are correct on the meaning of the word Ciufo about the hair thing. The coat of arms is a decapitated head being held by the hair. I'm getting it tattooed on myself,looks pretty gross. I do go to Tufo once a year, I guess i'll try to find out more.

Hi hey I'm not sure how these message board things work but I read about the family crest here and I would love to get a copy or see it. Where did you find it. By the way I took my grandfather back to Tufo in 1998.

I would like a copy of the crest as well if possible? I have just recently begun my research, so any help would be greatly appreciated. My grandfather (Leonard D Ciufo, who just passed in 2004) came to the US from Tufo.

I'm not sure but my husbands great grandfather came to the US and used Leonardo Cuifo as his sponser, I have an address. My great grandfathers name was Francesco Ciufo and he went to Port Richmond, NY in 1923.
