[Opinions] Some Italian names
Replies
I like Natasha, Marco, Sandra(I actually like my own name now), Luca, Chiara and Alessia.
Well, I would prefer another spelling for Chiara (Kiara), but I like the sound of it either way.
And it was a little fun coincidence that you mentioned my name (Sandra) as an Italian name now, because the other day I met this Italian guy on my busride home (I live in Norway). He starts talking to me, and when I tell him my name, he actually told me that Sandra is also Italian.
I've always known my name is quite international tho, I feel that it is pretty easy to pronounce and spell in most languages.

Hello :)
Natasha - it always makes me laugh that this is 'Ah satan' backwards. It kind of fits the Natasha I know :P I read that in Russia this is only used as a nickname, for Natalia. I personally prefer Natalia. I also prefer other names associated with christmas, which I love, such as Noelle. Natasha has a bit of a naughty girl/showgirl vibe to me, same as Lola. Maybe that's why I don't really like it. I love many Russian names but not this one.
Luana - I know you don't care for it ;) I have to admit that I like it. I have a soft spot for it, it makes me think of a lovely, free spirited person and of Hawaii so I think of beautiful beaches, sunrises and flowers.
Katiuscia - I think I prefer just Katia. Katiuscia is very cute but I find Katia a bit more elegant and substantial.
Marco - never cared for this. Did you know that this was also popular in Austria? It is a bit of a 70s/80s name. I know many.
Andrea - boy or girl? I was never able to warm up to this even though I know many lovely women named Andrea. It just always sounded kind of harsh and unfeminine to me. On a man however it sounds too girly to me because I knew female Andreas all my life.
Sandra - this was very common in Austria and Sandrine in France so I am bored by it. Alessandra is much nicer. Sandrine is nicer too.
Monica - this is very dated in Austria, usually spelled Monika here. I really don't care for it, but it isn't bad either. I like the similar Erika even though that is also dated here. The nickname Eri is so cute.

Hi Perrine !!!
This list is from tv shows.
I only like few of these.
Ruggero: it seems noble to my ears. This could seems dated and unusual but I think it is a strong name. Not my favourite but ok.
Priscilla ...Presley? Elvis? Why? Priscilla is unusual but it sounds refined to me.
Nives yes it is similar to Nivea but it is the Italian variant of Nieves (snows). I like its sound. Nives..so soft.
Paride PA-ree-de the Mythological prince. Yes it is unusual (59 new Paride in 2015) but it is very fascinating.
Diletta it is becoming trendy but I still like it. It is a sweet augural name with a clear meaning.
Elisabetta it has an obvious noble vibe like Isabella. I like it very much.
