In summary: But I digress.In summary, the conversation begins with a user asking for suggestions of famous scientists, engineers, mathematicians, etc. whose first or last name rhymes with "Nino." The conversation then shifts to some playful suggestions and banter among users. The original user clarifies that it is not a specific person they are looking for, but rather someone with recognition. Some suggestions are made, including Noella Marcellino, Federico Delpino, Orso Mario Corbino, and others. The original user thanks everyone for their responses and asks for more suggestions. The conversation ends with some confusion and the original user clarifying that they are not looking for a specific person, but rather a well-known name that rh

Not sure if this goes here but:

I need to know a somewhat famous scientist, engineer, mathematician, etc. that has a first or last name that rhymes with "Nino."

Also what was/is his/her CV or contribution to the field of technology, education, and of such.

Thank You in advance!

Are you making a science poem? You can take, erm, poetic license with a very well-known name. Like Albert Einsteinino.

What do you mean it's not a specific person? You just want our members to find anyone for you? Why?

Noella Marcellino:

Mother Noella Marcellino, O.S.B., (born 1952) is a Benedictine nun who has earned a doctorate in microbiology from the University of Connecticut. Studying fungi in France on a Fulbright Scholarship, she concentrates on the positive effects of decay and putrefaction as well as the odors and flavors of cheese.

Orso Mario Corbino. Mostly remembered for having fostered Fermi and his group, but eminent enough in his own right to have two 'effects' named after him, which must be nearly unique.

How rude :'(

No I know how to use Wikipedia. There is a list of Italian scientists but I want make sure I am not just picking a random person. Anyone can edit Wikipedia so I'm just double checking. I don't know much of my science history either.

I like all the responses. Thanks guys. I'll probably choose a few you guys named but keep them coming if you know any really good ones. I was hopefully looking for something the average joe already knows. Like I already of fermi, Newton, and Einstein but they don't rhyme.

Had a name that ended like that. But I don't know if that's what you want - and maybe it is time to tell us why you want it.

No, it was not even close to rude. I asked you to explain what you are doing. Now please answer.

It's not clear if the user is responding to lisab's question or suggestion but this may shed some light:

Wasn't clear what he was laughing at either, which is why I asked. Is this some odd homework assignment? I had actual assignments like "draw a fence in Africa", so I drew a fence and put a giraffe next to it, got an A+. This was in high school history, we never opened our books. This teacher was always doing these weird nonsensical assignments. I could see him asking us to create a poem with ryhming names.
