One thought, and I know I'm being silly, but doesn't 'Firenze' 
basically mean 'Florence', like the city?
 
You are correct Firenze is the Italian name for Florence. 
 

Me -

So what is Florence associated with then? I mean Rome is associated with
wolves, Romulus and Remus, Empire etc, Athens is Athena, democracy, owls;
Sparta is Ares, war etc etc - what are Florence's mythological and
historical links?
