I wasn't aware he was Sicilian, but he fits in any Med country really.

[Virtuous]

a Sicilian that spent his whole life under the sun, that's all.

[YeshAtid]

yes, you're right, he was from Abruzzo, I just checked. For some reason I always assumed he was Sicillian.

[Sikeliot]

He doesn't look quite Sicilian to me although he would pass. I'd have guessed Campanian.

Are there any un-sicilian Italian Americans? Everywhere i turn Sicilians, everywhere. EVERYWHERE.

Most Italian Americans I know are not Sicilian. Sicilian surnames are actually not as common as expected and neither Calabrese. I expect most Italian Americans are actually Campanian and Abruzzese.

[Scholarios]

It depends what area they are from. Most are Southerners and at the time of immigration, the area from Naples south was referred to as "Sicily", therefore you get a lot of Italian-Americans, hearing this from their grandparents that they are Sicilian.

About 80% of Italian-Americans are from Calabria, Sicily, Abruzzo, and Campania. About half of all Calabrian diasporans went to the U.S.
