He also has a Daughter named Meril(Emeril without the E) 💡🤔

You learn something knew every day. 💡 Thank you for teaching me a new fact. 💡😀 It's his name that made me think he was Italian. Emeril Lagasse sounds straight up Italian to me. 💡🤔

His Daddy is French Canadian. I am Italian on both sides of my family-all 8 great-grandparents are Italian immigrants. "Emeril Lagasse" sounds noting like Italian to me!

Have you never heard of Emerilco Vespucci? My town on Long Island had a small Portuguese population, and I never knew one named Emeril. I don't think it is a common name. There were no boys born in 2023 who were given the name at birth.

That's because Emeril is a French name. Emerico certainly sounds Italian, and I've never known anyone named Emerilco. Vespucci, of course, is an Italian name!
