My dictionary (http://www.yourdictionary.com) says:

Main Entry: glom
Pronunciation: 'gläm
Function: transitive verb
Etymology: alteration of English dialect glaum to grab
Date: 1907
Inflected Form(s): glommed; glom.ming
1 : TAKE, STEAL
2 : SEIZE, CATCH
- glom on to : to grab hold of : appropriate to oneself

His Italian name is translated literally "Cuordipietra Famedoro", that would
become "Heart of Stone - Hunger of Gold", that's kind of like the real one.
