It says it's a Ancient Roman family name, but it brings no citations for this, instead, it tries to deduces this from the words found in Romanian and Italian. In Vulgar Latin, it was just an obscure word for "shepherd", claiming a continuity of a family named like this is absurd. bogdan (talk) 00:11, 10 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Does this surname with that spelling (Pecoraro)exist among Italians with Wiki entries? In Wiki search I found some with the surname and with bio entries, so it can be a disambig page. Alex (talk) 00:14, 10 May 2009 (UTC)


 * It seems there are some Italians, so I guess the article should be turned into a disambig. bogdan (talk) 00:17, 10 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Yolanda Pecoraro's father was Italian, I just checked. Maybe others, of various nationalities. Alex (talk) 00:19, 10 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep. But it has to be seriously cleaned up towards a disambig/surname page. It exists as a surname among at least two individuals with Wiki bio entries: Yolanda Pecoraro, Susú Pecoraro. Alex (talk) 00:25, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, I created Păcuraru for the Romanian name, so this should remain for the Italian name. bogdan (talk) 00:27, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
