Etymology

The settlement was, along with Pieve Emanuele, originally part of the Pieve di Leucate. In this name, "pieve" stood for the rural churches that were common in rural Italy of which the name stems from the latin "plebs", while "Leucate" (which then shifted to Locate), indicated the marcite, water meadows very common in northern Italy. In 1862 the comune changed name from Locate to the one it has today, Locate di Triulzi, with the Regio decreto 19 Ottobre 1862, n. 934.
