Dubious[edit]

I believe the following. Caulfield called the Dublin suburb "marino" because he lived in the town of the same name in Lazio, Italy. It has nothing to do with the sea, which would be marina, with an "a". A Casino, with an "o" means house of fun or brothel. Casina, with an "a" is a small house. In Italian language, this distinction has always been important and casino has never meant "small house". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.42.99.191 (talk) 00:41, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The name 'Casino Marino' is derived from Italian which literally translates to 'The small house by the small sea'

Is it named Casino Marino or Casino at Marino? Isn't marino just the Italian adjective form of "sea" as marine? --84.20.17.84 13:57, 23 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • It's known by either The Casino at Marino, or Casino, Marino. The translation may not be strictly accurate, but I can personally verify that it's what the guide will tell you if you take a tour of the building. AndrewH 16:46, 5 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Back in the 1970s it used to be called "the Marino Casino". The Casino at Marino sounds a bit pretentious?78.17.55.202 (talk) 19:13, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I never heard it called anything but "the Marino Casino" from the 70's onwards, and I know that at least two generations before me referred to it solely as such. The formal name doesn't appear to match up with the vernacular in this case. EmmetCaulfield (talk) 23:43, 19 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
