Help[Opinions] Re: Italian Names
in reply to a message by Felie
Warning: this is an Italian POV
Albertina - No way I'll give it to a child. Unusable, at least in Italy. I like Alberto, though.
Ambra - I find it a bit posh, but not bad.
Anna - My grandma's name. I really like it, but I'm afraid it's a bit too popular for my taste.
Clara - Old-fashioned, but lovely.
Clementina - Too cutesy.
Consolazione - Horrible.
Cristina - Lovely.
Donatella - Ok for a woman in her 40s.
Elisa - I know too many to actually use it, but it's nice.
Emma - I like but, again, too common.
Francesca - Same as above.
Fulvia - Mmmh, not a fan.
Gabriella - Nice, but a bit dated.
Giorgia - I never liked it.
Giovanna - I like it, it as a personal meaning to me.
Giulietta - Too cutesy.
Laura - Nice, but I am not wild about it.
Livia - I adore it.
Luce - I definitely prefer Lucia.
Maria - Nice, but too religion-related for my taste.
Martina - Unnecessary, there's Marta.
Milena - I don't like it.
Monica - Ok on a woman in her 30s, I don't know if it will work on a child.
Nike - Unusable, at least in Italy.
Ortensia - Not on a child, please.
Patrizia - Ok on a woman in her 60s.
Penelope - Really a nice name, it's mythological, but the "Pene" begenning make me cringe.
Rina - Neither as a nickname, nor as a full name.
Rosalina - I love it, but I'm afraid it's unusable.
Silvana - Nice, but I prefer Silvia.
Valeria - I really like it.
Top 10: Livia, Clara, Giovanna, Cristina, Valeria, Maria, Laura, Anna, Francesca, Rosalina
Bottom 10: Consolazione, Albertina, Nike, Ortensia, Rina, Patrizia, Luce, Clementina, Giulietta, Fulvia.
