I don't know the etymology of Gogoncea but it's definitely Romanian. If you google the name and eliminate Mircea the guitar player and Dan Lilion the politician, you'll still find a number of people who bear that name. You'll find one of them at http://member.wayn.com/Iulian1978. You'll find others in Galati in the Romanian White Pages at http://infobel.com/en/world/Teldir.aspx?Ct=Europe&Co=Romania&Dn=Romania%20White%20Pages%20and%20Yellow%20Pages&url=http://www.whitepages.ro/
