Covelli Loyce Crisp. --Didn't know that. Trying to word this correctly but what nationality is "Covelli" That is a name I have never heard of for a boy or girl-I do like it though. If you know, where and or why "Coco" ? Seems in today's world someone would have called him CC, which is cool too.

from wiki:
Crisp was originally nicknamed "Coco" by his sister and brother who teased him that he looked like one of the characters on the Cocoa Krispies cereal box. The nickname was short-lived, until he started playing AA baseball. The team had all the players fill out a questionnaire form to get to know one another. Covelli listed "Coco" as his nickname on the form. His teammates thought the name was funny, so they had it put on the scoreboard during the game. After a week and a half, he was traded to another team, but the nickname stuck, and he has been "Coco Crisp" ever since. On March 5, 2013 he officially changed his name.

the name covelli is of Italian lineage. he father was african-american, his mother was puerto rican and italian
