The "Cappello" last name

Post by davidclay123 »

Hi guys,
An Italian friend of mine told me that "Cappello" means the one who makes capes.
Is this true?

Thanks, Erudita. Now I'll never look at Fabio Cappello, the Italian football coach, the same way.
There are countless benefits of Decaduro and people love it.
