The gens Tuticana, sometimes written Tuticania, was an obscure plebeian family at ancient Rome. Only a few members of this gens are mentioned in history, but a number are known from inscriptions.

The nomen Tuticanus belongs to a class of gentilicia formed from cognomina ending in -as, -atis, or -anus, all typically derived from the names of towns.^[1] Tuticanus refers to a native of Tuticum, a town of the Hirpini, a Samnite people.^[2]

Most of the Tuticani known from epigraphy bore the praenomen Gaius, one of the most abundant names at all periods of Roman history. Other members of this gens also bore common praenomina, including Publius, Quintus, and Titus.

This list includes abbreviated praenomina. For an explanation of this practice, see filiation.
