"Who?" Davey asked.
"Frankie the Nose?"
"I never heard of him."
Larry patted Davey's hand. "Don't worry, if you're not a member of The Industry, you won't be expected to know who he is."
Davey almost yanked his hand back from where it rested on Larry's arm, but wearing high heels made him worry about falling on his face in the middle of the street. His beautiful new face -- he reached up to touch his own cheek with a delicately painted fingernail. "He's in show business? Mr. the Nose?" he asked.
"Something like that. You ever watch The Sopranos?"

Too good at the job
These people were all too skilled at turning a boy into a pretty girl. I don't think Frankie the Nose CARES what his date is or was. But the question of what Davey will be AFTER this "date" is still valid.

I agree
They've clearly done it before. Maybe that's the way the Nose's tastes run.
Nose-job
So what you're saying is that if Frankie finds out, she's likely to get a "Nose"-job ;)

names
Of all the nicknames he could have, why'd he pick "the Nose"?
...perhaps somebody picked
...perhaps somebody picked it for him... ewww!
It could be a handy euphemism
I mean, lets say, he's bisexual and very well endowed.
He's in the Mob and has a tough reputation, I assume. You are an underling in the Mob,. are YOU going call him Frankie the Ass Fu****, or Frankie the Fairy, or Frankie the Frankfurter or so on?
Frankie the Nose is so much safer, like you’re saying he has a nose for the business. Other nicknames could get you six feet under or Sicilian swimwear, AKA concrete galoshes.
