The gens Turbonia was an obscure plebeian family of ancient Rome. No members of this gens are mentioned by Roman writers, but several are known from inscriptions. A family by this name lived at Flavia Solva in Noricum during the second and third centuries.
The nomen Turbonius belongs to a large class of gentilicia originally formed from cognomina ending in -o and -onis.

The only praenomina mentioned in the inscriptions of the Turbonii are Titus , Marcus , and Sextus , all of which were common throughout Roman history.
