==Childhood and musical studies== Toquinho was born in São Paulo to Diva Bondioli and Antônio Pecci. He has one brother, João Carlos Pecci. He has Italian ancestry, with his paternal grandfather being from Toro, Molise, his paternal grandmother being born in Calabria, and his maternal grandparents hailing from Mantua. As he was very short as a child, his mother used to call him "meu toquinho de gente" ("my piece of person"), which was the origin of his nickname.
