Some folks say you should be proud of your name. I’m not sure why. It hasn’t done anything noteworthy lately. Heck, ever. My name doesn’t even pay for bills. Or an Venti EspressoMochaRalphMacchio even.
Yet it has a coat-of-arms.
Lo, behold the fierce lamb of Agnello. Death awaits you with warm wooly fleece! (With apologies to Monty Python)
Lamb of Agnello, is somewhat of a redundancy however, because lamb, in Italian, is Agnello. With red potatoes and some nice Chianti. And maybe some mint jelly. Delightful that way, and a tad less gamey.
I’m not ashamed of who I am, rather I believe in truth in advertising. I think it would be better to redo the family crest with “a geek, rampant vert, blogging on three laptops, argent,” or “potato, mulleted, on a couch sinister”
