Nardolillo is a pet form of "Nardo", which itself is a short form of any name ending in "nardo", like "Bernardo" or "Leonardo".

It doesn't mean "small dick".

Nardo is also a word for Dick there is a link in spanish http://coloquialmente.com/es/nardo

That's great, but your question was "Why would someone use 'small dick' as a surname?" and the answer is "They didn't."

Spanish colloquialisms of unknown age probably didn't have much influence on Italian surnames that date back to at least the mid-18th century.
