i corrected it for you. the 'e' in Amerigo is not accented.

and, by the way, he was born Italian. he spent 54 years of his life as Italian national, and didn't take Spanish citizenship till the last 4 years of his life. case closed.
also, 'Vespucio' didn't discover anything. Vespucci did. and 'America' comes from the Latin form of 'Amerigo', not Spanish.
