The surname Aquino comes from one of the historic noble houses in Italy. Although Jure Francorum lived,[clarification needed] as
Benedetto Croce attests, the family was, however, of
Lombard blood, as it came from
Radoaldo, who had been Aquino's possessor in the time of the
dukes of Benevento. The Aquinos were counted among the seven great houses of the
Kingdom of Naples. Among its most prominent members, the family includes the famous saint
Thomas Aquinas.[1]
