Thread Name: Jacomo finane? What does that mean?-Iko Iko
Subject: RE: Jacomo finane? What does that mean?
To answer my own question -
Giacomo does not mean John or Joseph - it is usually translated as James, Jacques or Jacob
Giovanni is John Guiseppe is Joseph
Still - I can see where non-Italians would get either John or Joe out of Giacomo
