Amonet, Amonett appears to be a prominant name among the Huguenot
descendancy...
There is a Jacob (Amonet Ammonet Ammonett) who was born in 1667 and
died in 1725 (Huguenot Society, many MANY genealogies -- last count
70). He was one of the founders of the Viginia Huguenot colony.
UNfortunately, this is outside of the grey period. Still looking...

There is a variant in Italian:
"Dizionario dei Cognomi Italiani"
Ammannnati (var. Ammannato): (pg 55)
Cognome tuscano, derivato dal soprannome e poi nome augurale tardo
mediovale Ammannato, formato dall'agg. toscano ammannato "ben
preparato, ben disposto"
translated:
Tuscano last name, derived from the nickname and the name augured from
late medieval Ammannato, formed from the agg. from Tuscany ammannato
"very prepared, very decided"
