Riga 5:
Riga 5: − Benché nel passato siano state fatte molte discussioni sul significato della sigla, ad oggi l'ipotesi più accreditata ed effettivamente anche più ragionevole, ancorché non confermata direttamente da nessun documento ufficiale, è quella che essa faccia semplicemente riferimento alle iniziali di ''Monteiro Guimarães'', "M" e "G" che in portoghese si pronunciano appunto "''eme''" e "''ge''". Che si trattasse di una dicitura ufficiale è comunque confermato dall'ordine illustrato in figura a lato, dove è presente l'esplicita richiesta della stampigliatura ''Emegê'' sulla testa del cappuccio.+

However, as noted by Vasco in Pisco [http://fountainpenboard.com/forum/index.php?/topic/4422-pelikan-100n-magnum/page__gopid__25476#entry25476 this thread] it is not very convincing as ''Monteiro Guimarãe'' was the exclusive distributor for Portugal, Spain, Brazil and other Portuguese colonies in Africa, and the legal representative of [[Pelikan]] in those countries, so all fountain pens would still be passed by him, and it seems more reasonable to think of commercial reasons and promotion of its own brand.

Although in the past many discussion have been made about the meaning of the acronym, to date the best hypothesis, and the more reasonable even if not directly confirmed by any official document, is that's a simple reference to the ''Monteiro Guimarães'' initials, "M" and "G" that in Portuguese are pronounced exactly ''"eme"'' and ''"ge"''. Whether it was a real official name is, however, confirmed the order shown in the figure on the right, where there is an explicit request from the marking ''Emegê'' on the top of the cap.
