[Facts] Re: Giacopone
in reply to a message by Array
I think it means "big Jacob".Giacopa may be an Italian form of the name Jacob and I think the suffix -one (pronounced oh-nay) means "big".It may well have been a surname first which was then taken as a personal name.I may be wrong but I think it may be something like that.
I hope this helps. :)
