You can go from Pasquale to Patrick, but Kevin...Justin...Trevor...Jason...Kenneth...

"Walden...the fuck kinda name is that for an Italian?"


There was a Colombo associate who got deported back to Italy a few years ago who had the first name Walter. I always found it to be a strange name for a guy born in Italy, his parents might have went back and forth from Italy and the US.


Walter is not uncommon in the far North of Italy...you got to remember in the North of Italy that used to be Austria 110 years ago...


Walter is a moder form of Gualtiero,that come to Italy after Water Scott novel Ivanoé.One of my uncles name is Moses,also very rare as name.

There was also Ludwig Bruschi from the Genovese family, also an unusual name for an Italian.

Willie Marfeo to Henry Tameleo:

1) "You people want a loaf of bread and you throw the crumbs back. Well, fuck you. I ain't closing down."

2) "Get out of here, old man. Go tell Raymond to go shit in his hat. We're not giving you anything."
