Mangione is a playful Italian word that means “big eater” or “glutton“. It is the combination of the verb mangiare (to eat) and the suffix -one which is used to describe things that are big.

He lived up to his name and ate the rich.

    I admit it.

    It was me, Mario!

    But my name is actually Guy Tomber, and I’m French.

    (For those who don’t speak the language of love, that translates, in a punny way, to ‘fall guy’)
