I'm never sure whether to feel amused or slightly sad when I hear other Italian Americans mispronounce their own family names, & then "correct" me when I use the actual Italian pronunciation.
It's almost as sad as all the Italian families in the tri-state area whose names got changed to Pace, Chase, Palmer, etc., etc., in the frantic rush to assimilate. :/
