I don't care for it. Along with the poem and Italian city it's the name of quite a few North American towns too. I've even been to one of the Ravennas (wasn't impressed) so I have that association. Also, I've always heard it prn rah-VAN-nuh or ruh-VEN-nuh. For some reason the accent on the second syllable sounds makes it sound particularily nasal to me.
