My maternal grandfather's last name was Difanis, and he immigrated to the
U.S. with his parents around 1910. They were from Calabria, but as far as
I can tell, this isn't really an Italian name. No one seems to know if it
was shortened or not. Someone told me that there are a lot of Albanians in
Calabria. Does anyone know if this could be an Albanian name?

Thanks.
