Q: Pino
Actually, Pino is Greco's nickname (also "The Shoe"). Q. Johnny the Fox. (Note: I was thinking of Arnold Rothstein as "The Brain," but Lansky also was known as "The Brain.)

Maybe I misunderstood you, but there was more than one Greco: Michele "Il Papa - The Pope" Greco, Salvatore "Cichiteddu - Birdie" Greco, Giuseppe "Pino - The Shoe" Greco, Salvatore "The Senator" Greco, Leonardo Greco. All topfigures in Sicilian Mafia.
