[Opinions] Bianca
What are your thoughts on Bianca? Too weird for a non-Italian child? I feel like that's a name that's crossed into multicultural territory, but I'm curious to hear your opinions. My own heritage has substantial Hungarian in it... would Bianka be preferable? I like Bianca more than Bianka, but idk. It doesn't have the same Shakespearean awesomeness, and I'd have to spell it every time.
What middle names come to mind? Would Bianca work with cross-cultural middle names, like Vivienne? Do you think it would work with sisters Margaret, Catherine, Eliza, Georgia, Sophie, et al.?
I know it's a lot of questions, but I really appreciate your feedback. :)

My parents were considering Bianca for me (and I'm from a Chinese heritage, so I think it's multicultural enough to use on a non-Italian child). I think it's okay, and the spelling Bianca is deifnitely better than Bianka.
Bianca Vivienne sounds very nice together, though I don't particularly like them separately.

My most favorite Bianca combo ever is Bianca Marsaili. I think it sounds so beautiful and romantic. :)
I feel like Bianca is a very multicultural name now. I don't picture any certain nationality when I think of it so it's totally usable. The spelling Bianca is much more appealing to me, and as you said it retains the awesome Shakespearean association.
Bianca Vivienne is okay, but I'm not a fan of Vivienne really.
Bianca outshines those other names, in my opinion. I feel like her sisters should have equally spicy names.

I just can't get behind Bianca. I hate the sound and it just sounds so bratty (Taming of the Shrew hasn't helped). Bianka just makes Bianca look even skunkier and even less appealing to me. Bianca Vivienne works, though.
I don't see it in the same category as Margaret, Catherine, Eliza, Georgia, Sophie etc. I see it more as a sister to a Sophia (rather than a Sophie), Gabriella, Marina, Victoria etc.

I really like the name Bianca. I think it would totally work for a non-Italian child! :)
I think Bianca is a beautiful name and I have a close friend called Bianca, whose parents are from Hong Kong. Bianca looks a lot nicer than Bianka, I think, and you definitely would have to spell Bianka out every time. I really don't think Bianca is too weird for someone who is not Italian.
Bianca seems a bit out of place with sisters called Margaret, Catherine, etc., but just a bit.
Bianca goes all right with Vivienne, but I don't like the name Vivienne much. Middle names I think work nicely are Rose, Alana, Olivia, Marcelle and Valentina. Cross cultural middle names, especially other European ones would work fine.
