Ellis Island does not have anyone coming from Italy with that spelling of a surname.

The name does appear in Italy......I would think the name to be very rare, as there are less than five people in the Lazio region......as for the history of the name....one of our Italian friends would have to further advise you.

The word "pasion" in Castilian Spanish means passion and is a fairly common surname in most Spanish speaking countries, particularly Mexico. The name is also quite common in the Phillippines where people originally took last names from lists that contained mostly Spanish surnames.
