]] The Racaniello or Racani family was a prominent family of Umbrian origin which provided a number of administrators in Todi.
One branch of the family was established in Apulia in 1412 in the service of bishop Dondei of Bari.
In 1405 another part of the family came under the protection of the Albizzi. On their behalf Ludovico Racaniello, a captain of Montecchio , today a frazione of Castiglion Fiorentino, acted as Procurator of Arezzo in 1419.
