Cauchi Families and Names in the
U.S.A., Malta & Worldwide |
"Cauchi" as a surname clearly has its base on the Islands of Malta and Gozo. The "Cauchy" French spelling of the name is firmly based in France. Historians and genealogists trace the name back through 600 to 1,000 years in those regions, also including Italy. This simple study is a snapshot of 2005-08 - where the Cauchi households are located now.
TOTALS? The total of all households tallied on this page are approximately 1,887 "Cauchi" and 844 "Cauchy" covering 22 countries. Please see the cautions and disclaimer under other countries, below.
The Cauchi surname is relatively
uncommon in the United States. The following is a state geographic
listing of the 272
Cauchi names as listed
in the U.S. telephone directories, courtesy of whitepages.com; updated January 2011. This is 15 fewer than
January 2010, quite possibly because more households are switching to
cell-phone only, with numbers normally not listed by whitepages.com.
Families are concentrated in only four states: 71 in New York, 57 in
California, 48 in Michigan and 28 in Florida. Another 70 Cauchi families
are scattered among 15 states, which leaves 31 states with no Cauchi
listed. In addition, there are 66
"Cauchy"
families (the French spelling) listed in 16 states;
and 9 "
Kaoukis" (the Greek spelling) in the U.S. updated January 2011.

News!
A valuable new publication provides a 34-page, in-depth look at the
origins and distribution of Cauchi families worldwide. Published April 2011. |
This U.S. list is now
complete as of January 2011, but only includes individuals choosing to be
included in published phone directories, and has no information on family
size. Where identified, exact duplicate names & addresses are counted
only once. With luck, most of the underlined linked totals provide the
names, cities and phone numbers from the public WhitePages.com or D|ex
telephone lists.
[Note: Whitepages.com has online
listings by state and nationwide, with totals that include both home and work
numbers. A Dex
redesign disabled direct state links as of Feb 2007.

Other Countries:
The following are some interesting, major examples of Cauchi locations and migration to additional nations. The listings vary in terms of completeness and accuracy, due to the widely differing policies used by private and national telephone companies. Some appear quite complete and updated regularly (for example, Malta, Australia, Canada, France). Others are served by multiple companies that may not cooperate on listings, or maintain lists only locally, making it far more difficult to count or link for the entire country (for example Argentina, Germany, Greece). Many other large countries do not have residential listings online (for example Brazil, China, India, Russia) or use alphabets not readily searchable from the U.S. or Europe.
