Re: Order of Names
I guess it's Croce Maria Giovanni, and surname Puma.
He was a man; Croce can a name both for men and women; but the other chance is Maria Giovanni (rather than Giovanni Maria), and it is not used for males (or at least, I've never heard of it).

Definitely a male
He was a "solfataio" "sulfur miner". Idoubt that a woman would have that job in 1920...

Re: Order of Names
The last name is definitely Puma because this is shown first in the record below and in the index. The first name is Croce, unusual, but logical. I have seen other records of males with three names, the second being Maria. The name is unusual? Look at the name of the mother, Salvatrice, feminine term for Savior.
