I knew a girl who used to wear a silver pendant around her neck in the shape of a twisted horn ( a bit like a goat's horn). She claimed that she didn't know what it stood for. Does anyone know the meaning of this symbol?

She didn't know what it stood for and she was wearing it.....
What if it meant "I have stinky pits" would she have worn it then if she had known?
Kind of like the guy who wears the star of David and when you ask if he's Jewish he says "Why does everyone ask that? I'm a devil worshipper!" wrong star kid and wrong way up. Or the guy who scrawls "Satin Loves You. Worship Satin 666" on the bathroom wall at the local Wal-Mart.
Satin feels nice wrapped around my bum but i don't worship it.
The symbol is the the Cornicello aka the Little Horn it's actually an eland's horn and is used to ward off the evil eye. They are also sacred to an ancient European moon goddess. Men often wear it as a symbol of fertility and they can be found in any Italian jewlery shop or trinket store. Some women wear it to attract a mate.

I've heard it said it's called an ' Italian Horn ' meant to be as a sign of occult practices. Pay it no mind. Inanimate objects only have importance if you invested a lot of money in a CGI array and are hoping to win a SpFx contract either with a major studio or a known independent producer.
