[Opinions] Re: Italian names query
in reply to a message by Rose-Berry
I'm not an Italy expert, but the state I live in has the highest Italian population in America. So I guess I still know a fair bit about Italian names. I've seen Rosa used, though it is more often on middle-aged to older women. But it wouldn't seem out of place on a younger person. I've never seen Rosanna used, but Luisa is fairly common. I don't think Siena is really used that often as a name. Here are some other names that are common in my area.
Michaela
Victoria
Nina
Sandra
Lucetta
Marisa / Marissa
Gabriella
Milan
Maria
Anna
Monica
Isabella
Nadia
Cinzia (CHIN-see-uh)
Gianna (super common. I know about 6 of them)
Caterina
Eva
If you want a list of boys' names I can give one to you, too.

Thanks for that, it's a lovely list of names. I know I was only asking about girls' names but if you have a list of Italian names for boys then I'd be interested in seeing it. Thank you.
