The name of the day of the week in Italian in C #

Question

I cannot extract the name of the day of the week in Italian on my aspx page using C #.

I tried this solution, but the output is Friday, what’s wrong?

DateTime ItalianJobCookie = DateTime.Parse(Request.Cookies["ItalianJob"].Value);
string ItalianJobCookieDayName = ItalianJobCookie.DayOfWeek.ToString("G", new CultureInfo("it-IT"));

Response.Write(ItalianJobCookieDayName.ToString());
