Hey everyone hows everyone doing? This is my first post and i need to ask a question about Frankie Pentangeli. I was wondering where the nickname Frankie 5 Angels comes from. Thanks in advance.

I believe that Pentangelli in Italian translates to 5 angels (pent) ( angelli ).

Some help from our Italian piasans would be appreciated! wink

WELCOME to the boards Marco!

Yes the name does mean Five Angels, just like you say Don Cardi. However, this is in Latin, not Italian. grin
Five in italian is cinque.
Allthough I'm not sure if Angeli is a latin word.
