ArchivesBracco, DeNiro, Kercheval, Sinise
Bracco & DeNiro look like they would be Italian. Kercheval looks like it would be Russian or French. Sinise looks like it would be Irish. What are the origins & meanings of these names ?

Bracco is Italian, like Bracchi has an origin which is not clear:
Perhaps it could come from an old german name, or from a race of dogs.
De Niro could be a variant of NERI, that is "black"
Sinise is italian too, it come from the name of a town in Southern Italy near Potenza, Sinise.
