The term ''Urlazio'' originates from the period of [[Gothic people|Gothic]] rule over the island, known as the [[Urlazian Kingdom]]. The Goths, who arrived in the fourth century, referred to the island as "Urlatino" from the Gothic prefix "ur-", meaning "origin", and "Latino", the self-described term Latins of the period used. The term gradually adopted the streamlined "z" sound over the "t" sound in the medieval period. | |||
