The city in Italy is "Pano". Whether it gets conjugated as though it were
Hebrew is pretty open. It's kind of like the inverse of the question of
whether one should write "anti-Torah" or "anti-Sorah". (Actually, one would
hope not to have occasion to have to write either...)

Also, FWIW, in personal meandering I usually encounter either "Rav
Menacheim Azariah deFano" or the "Rama miFano", but not the combination
"Rama de-". Don't know what to make of that.

Tir'u baTov!
