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’ve always thought it was badass to do a crime so infamous that the crime gets named after you. Think Charles Ponzi or Lorena Bobbit.
