Melania in the feminine and Melanio in the masculine are Italian equivalents of the English name "Kerry." The English name traces its origins back to the Gaelic name Ciar, whose equivalent as "dark" in Italian traces back to the Greek μελανία (melania, "blackness," from μέλας [melas]). The respective pronunciations will be "mey-LA-nya" in the feminine and "mey-LA-nyo" in Pisan Italian.
