I've done it numerous times. Depends on what you want to use it for. Thawed ricotta tends to be (a bit) more grainy than fresh but the taste is not affected, so for dishes where the texture is not particularly important, like lasagna, I say go ahead. Freezing won't make ricotta unusable and I've never experienced more than a slight change in texture. Once it is thawed properly in the refrigerator, it should be fine.
Pecorino Romano typically lasts for about 3 to 4 weeks if stored properly in the refrigerator before it goes bad.

Yes. It refers to the city of Parma, where the cheese originated.

Usually a hard cheese. You probably mean parmesan (parmigiano-reggiano) but you can also grate pecorino romano, grana padano, etc...
The four cheeses for manicotti are ricotta mixed with grated parmesan, grated pecorino romano, and the manicotti itself topped with mozzerella. Those are the standard 4 Italian cheeses. Good Luck!
pecorino comes mainly from Italy.
(peh-koh-REE-noh) From the word pecora which means ewe in Italian, cheeses made from sheep's milk in Italy are called pecorino. Although the majority of pecorino is made in southern Italy, especially Sardinia, the best known pecorino is Pecorino Romano. Genuine Romano is only produced in the province of Rome from November to June. Although a little sharper than Parmesan, it is often substituted when used in cooking.It has an intensely strong sheepy quality to it. Look for the sheep's head logo with Pecorino Romano embossed on the rind to make sure you are getting the real stuff.
The main difference between cacio e pepe and carbonara pasta dishes is the ingredients used in the sauce. Cacio e pepe is made with pecorino Romano cheese and black pepper, while carbonara includes eggs, pecorino Romano cheese, pancetta or guanciale, and black pepper. Additionally, cacio e pepe is a simpler dish with fewer ingredients, while carbonara has a richer and creamier sauce due to the addition of eggs.

The question is mixing the names. I believe it should be Parmesan - Reggiano and Pecorino - Romano. The are two different varieties of hard cheese with the Roman being sharper (saltier?) than the Parmesan. Both are used for grating but the Parmesan can also be used on a cheese tray as thin slices or "shaved" into a salad by using a potato peeler.
