| Name origin | Cagiva is a portmanteau of Castiglioni Giovanni Varese: the surname and first name of founder Giovanni Castiglioni combined with the city of Varese, where the company was founded in 1950. | The company carries the surname of the Benelli family of Pesaro. Teresa Boni Benelli invested the family capital after her husband's death so that her six sons could work together, and the firm took the family name. |
