I think in this case Giano is a nickname for Giacomo (Italian for James). Gino is a shortening of Luigino, a nickname for Luigi (Italian for Lewis)....

I actually saw that when looking for a picture of St. Giano. It turns out that Giano was a name which subsumed the pre-christian God Janus (they did this a lot in pagan Europe - also this is the origin of Easter, and probably Christmas, which was a pagan festival).

The two-head thing is Giano-specific. I don't know why. But most pictures of Giano have two faces.

I thought Giano was John - when I looked for St. Giano, I got St. John.

I have a friend who's in the Catholic ordained life (not Essjay rolleyes.gif ), and who happens to be a real Italian, speaking several languages, including fluent English. I can verify, next time we speak.


BACK TO KELLY MARTIN

Someone did send me a concerned message, on this board, explaining to me that Kelly has/had nothing to do with any secret list, so I decided to make that prominent, as it clearly was important to her.
