-Is anybody ever going to tell commentators that his name is DAGOSTINO, and not, DEEEEAGOSTINO. -
I thought the same thing about Gabe's pronunciation of D'Agostino, but I think D'Agostino is either a Greek or Italian name.
Notice the apostrophe in his name. Like all apostrophes, it's replacing something. I think it's replacing the letter i. So, the correct spelling would be di Agostino or Di Agostino.
In Italian (and maybe Greek), di is pronounced deeeee(the i is pronounced like the e's in steep). So, I think Gabe's correct. Remember... Gabe knows all...or at least he thinks he does.
di Pronunciation= deee (long e sound)
prep.
from; of: used in Italian personal names, originally to indicate place of origin: Conte di Savņia. Also,Di.
