Giammaria

Giammaria is an Italian masculine given name. It is a compound formed from Giovanni and Maria and is written with a double m in some regional spellings. The name reflects traditional Italian practice of pairing a saint’s name with another devotional element into a single given name.

In usage and distribution, the form Giammaria appears in historical Italian records and within families, especially in older generations. In contemporary use, it is rare; Gianmaria and Gian Maria are far more common variants. The name is found primarily in Italian-speaking communities and among descendants of Italian emigrants.

Variants and related names include Giamaria, which omits the second m, and Gianmaria, the more common modern contraction of Giovanni Maria. The broader set of related compounds also encompasses Giovanni Maria and other combinations that fuse names in Catholic naming traditions.

Notable people with the given name Giammaria are not widely documented in public biographical sources. The form tends to appear in genealogical records and local contexts rather than in contemporary biography.
