This first name {Italian}is my second cousin. Do you happen to know how to pronounce it? also, do you know what it might mean in English. Thank you for your help. I love your web site.

hmm, well, it should be pronounced "ver-on-i-ka"ver- as in "per", but with a "v"
on- just like the word "on"
i- just like saying "I"
ka- like in "cat"Should be said the same way whether it's "ka" or "ca" spellingas for the meaning, I'm not to good at, however, I looked it up and it's from the itialian words "vera icon", which in English means "True Image"
