Hi !!!

Diletta is an Italian name that means 'beloved, desired, favourite'.

In 2016 It was used for 575 babies (#69 used for girls).

WDYTO about It?
Can you suggest me any combo?

Hello :)

It has a very nice meaning but a very awful sound, in my opinion :( It reminds me of Gilette, the company. I also don't think it has any nice nicknames. Didi? Lettie? Letta? All pretty unattractive even though Lettie is the best of the three. Sorry, I dislike it :(

Hi Perrine !!!

I know a Diletta Who goes with Dile (DEE-le) but I dislike it. Didi is childish but actually the best here.

If I have to choose a NN I'd like Diletta 'Lady' as here It is linked only with the noble title and not with the word. WDYT?

I really like Diletta Rosa. Gorgeous.

I do not like it much. The sound is okay, but it reminds me of dilettante (an amateur).

combos:
Diletta Louise
Diletta May
Diletta Brynn
Diletta Florence
Diletta Jean
Diletta Clara

It sounds a bit cheesy to me. It’s what Scarlet ‘s daughter is named in the Italian version of Gone with the Wind (Bonnie).

Hi Fiammetta !!!

Cheesy? In my mind it is so romantic and ethereal... But I know that It is increasing in popularity and not everyone likes transparent names..

I did't know the literarian link but it is positive if you say that It is similar to Bonnie. I love this name as well.

It feels a bit like naming a child “darling “ to me.
