Of course Vito was named after the town he came from, as you said it was quite common.

There's a famous scene in The Godfather that shows the orphaned Vito arriving at Ellis Island as a child and the immigration officer mistaking the town he came from for his family name, thus he ended up being called Corleone. This was actually a fairly common experience for immigrants who arrived at about the turn of the century. Their names were either incorrectly recorded or else they changed them as part of starting a new life in America.
