@FlightTime: I added the real name and the date of baptism by Stefano Felis from a book of Dinko Fabris (a famous musicologist) (Levante Editori, 1993). The real name in italian was Maza Gatto (in modern Italian is Ammazza gatto = Kill the cat). That's the reason that he changed his name to Latin (Felis).Driante70 (talk) 18:25, 14 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
Dinko Fabris, p. 46: "Veniamo così a Stefano Felis, il cui vero nome era Stefano de Maza Gatto (latinizzando un soprannome non proprio dignitoso, che tuttavia si incontra in diversi documenti baresi del tempo), se possiamo credere all'atto di battesimo, in data 20 gennaio 1538." translation: "We come to Stefano Felis, whose true name was Stefano de Maza Gatto (Latinizing a not really decent name, which however meets in several documents of the time in Bari), if we can believe in the act of baptism, on January 20, 1538"Driante70 (talk) 18:31, 14 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
