[Opinions] Re: Giannina or Antonina?
I love Antonina. It's a little more clunky than Antonia, which I think is just so pretty, but that's almost what makes it more enjoyable for me. That little bit of awkward is a nice touch. Giannina's not bad, though. It's unexpected but still very familiar. I'm kind of pleased to see a name that branches out further than Giada and Gianna, which I'm finding very tiresome in the context of English-speaking namers. I used to know a Vanina, which I think is pretty. She shared the name with her mother, who was from Peru. I could see it as a nickname for Nerina, Norina, or Nicolina as well.
