According to J.G Fucilla, (an authority on surnames),the possible origines of the Magliocco surname is that it is found to be originally classed as a nicknamefor someone with a defect of the eyes,such as a one eyed man or someone with a squint, so called in Latin, 'Malo', meaning sickness and, 'Ochi', meaning eye.
The Magliocco's are accounted among the ancient barons and feudal lords of the Kingdom of Naples. In 1589 Nicola Giacoma Magliocco, Doctor of Laws, claimed the right of Frosinone. In 1718 Guilio Magliocco was one of the Priors in the council of the City of Frosinone.
There is to this day a large concentration of Magliocco's ine the province of Frosinone. The name can also be found in reasonable numbers in Siracusa (Sicily).
The Magliocco's who settled in Ireland, to the best of my knowledge, are all from Casalattico in the province of Frosinone.
