Nigel Parsons Jacomo finane? What does that mean?-Iko Iko (179* d) RE: Jacomo finane? What does that mean? 29 Jul 24


Hi,
Nothing to add to the meaning of the song, just a link I noticed.

Some comments above have given Jackomo, or Giacomo, as a jester.

The best correlation I can think of is Danny Kaye in the film "The Court Jester" (1955)

"I'm Giacomo, Giacomo,
My fame before me rings.
King of jesters,
And jester of kings!"
