Best Answer

Saia is an Italian name influenced by Turkish culture that means literally "skirt-maker," though generally referred to a member of the noble guild of tailors based in and around Venice. The Saia family split during the Italian Renaissance, with the majority staying in Northern Italy, while a smaller portion moved to Sicily. In the early 1900s there was a mass exodus of the Sicilian branch to America. The large trucking company is part of that Sicilian branch, while there are many of the Northern Italian Saias scattered across Europe and North America.
