IÂ·talÂ·ian. adj. Of or relating to Italy or its people, language, or culture. n. 1. a. A native or inhabitant of Italy. b. A person of Italian ancestry. 2.
The name Italy (Italia) is an ancient name for the country and people of Southern Italy. Originally is was spelled Vitalia, probably from the same root as the Latin vitulus (a one-year-old calf), thus literally meaning 'calf-land' or Land of Cattle. The area was rich with bovine, and the people living there probably took the name symbolically since it identified them with their land.
