Quote - The more I look, the more convinced I am that the work "Amacord" is an incorrect spelling.
In Google Earth I managed to find an "Amarcord Viaggi Di Fausta Moretti" on the coast of the Adriatic Sea. It looks like a building of some kind... maybe a train station or a ship port. Not sure. According to an online translator "Viaggi" means "Travels".

Quite interesting. I knew that it was a movie made by Fellini, and I always thought that Italian words would end in a vowel (some, but not all) -- and I too wondered what that word would be pronounced: Ama[r]cord: I remember. Hmmm, I don't know; just a real lover of foreign films, I guess.

To the poster, change is good, but I think the name is all the more unique and give it a sense of personality. I felt the my user name is too "kiddyish" or "cartoonish" for my taste.
So good luck!
