Why was Amerigo Vespucci nicknamed Pickle dealer?

Amerigo Vespucci was humorously nicknamed the "Pickle Dealer" due to a misinterpretation of his surname. In Italian, "Vespucci" sounds similar to "cucurbitacee," which refers to cucumbers and pickles. This nickname reflects the playful nature of historical anecdotes surrounding explorers and their exploits rather than any actual connection to pickles. Ultimately, the title is more of a lighthearted quip than a serious moniker.
