Meaning of FATTORINI
Here's a toughie; this is purportedly a name of Scicilian origin, with roots that may stretch back into Austria (based on stories I have been told). I can't find anything about it as far as meaning goes- geneaologies are well documented, but there seems to be no definition of the parts that make up the name. Anyone?
