Question:

Common Italian surnames...?

by | earlier

I'm writing a legal thriller/comedy book. And one of my main character's mother is American of Italian descent, and I can't really think of a nice jazzy common Italian surname. Can someone help me with this one.

Thanks in advance!

Puccinni - not exactly jazzy, but most people would recognise it as Italian.

I knew a guy once called Dimambro.
