Re: I will quote someone else's post on the surname Vernetti or Fernet
in reply to a message by Getb2
Thank you both for your assistance. I know it was a shot in the dark. I've never been able to figure out why the name was changed to Fernatt (upon entrance into the Army) other than "it didn't sound so Italian." Thank you once again!

I still wonder what's the etymology of the place name Etten (I cant find it yet) or of the liquor called Fernet...
