Elaine Magliaro: Hi, my name is Elaine Magliaro. Magliaro is my married name. In Italy the name is pronounced differently. Magliaro. My husband's paternal grandparents came from Naples. My maiden name was Drabik. People have the hardest time pronouncing and spelling Drabik, even though it has just six letters. D-R-A-B-I-K. A few different versions of Drabik that I heard and saw over the years: Drabnek, Daybrik, Drabner, and Drobnik.
