Not long ago I wrote about the strange surnames you can find here in Italy. But since I find new ones every single day I'll give you another amusing list. And I'm sure that after reading this you're happy that you are named Smith or Brown or something else that's slightly boring.....
Buonacucina = Good-kitchen
Gatto = Cat
Bevilaqua = Drink-water
Casagrande = Large-house
Vinonuovo = New-wine
Purgatori = Purgatory
Mastronzo = (What a) moron
Coma = Coma
Sterminio = Extermination
Morbillo = Measles
Spazzolini = Brushes
Sanguedolce = Sweet-blood
Incapace = Not-able-to
Rutto = Burp
Cavadenti = Pulling-teeth
Cantacessi = Singing-toilet
Mezzabarba = Half-beard
Amazzalorso = Kill-bears
Tontodimamma = Mum's "dimwit"
Passacantando = Passes-by-singing
Carnevale = Carnival
Pappagallo = Parrot
Della Seta = (Made) of-silk
Bellagamba = Beautiful-foot
By the way, I wonder how the Italians manage to introduce themselves to each other without giggling??
