Lodovico was a son of Emperor (tsar) Michael Asen III "Šišman" of Bulgaria (1323–1330) and his first wife, Ana, daughter of King Stefan Uroš II Milutin of Serbia by Elizabeth of Hungary. He may have borne a different name before becoming a catechumen and converting to Catholic Christianity. Although he has been variously identified with any of his three known brothers, Ivan Stephen, Šišman, and Michael, but was probably a distinct person. Recent research has established he is definitely distinct from Ivan Stephen.

Michael was a son of Emperor (tsar) Michael Asen III "Šišman" of Bulgaria (1323–1330), and probably his first wife, Ana, daughter of King Stefan Uroš II Milutin of Serbia by Elizabeth of Hungary. He is attested solely in a fresco in the Church of the Holy Mother of God at Donja Kamenica, now in Serbia, which attests that he held the title of despot at some point after his father's accession in 1323. The various possibilities for the precise identification and chronological placement of the despot Michael carry significant implications for both the political history and social practice of medieval Bulgaria.
