Help[Opinions] Re: Italian names
in reply to a message by Felie
I really like the Italian pronunciation of the -ice names, Berenice and Clarice which I think are hideous pronounced the English/French way. Italian Beatrice is gorgeous (Miss Jean Brodie thought so too :-))
I also like:
Persefone
Polissena (from my favourite play and much less clunky than Polyxena)
Dafne (DAHF-neh)
Violante - it kind of makes me laugh as it sounds so much like violent, but I love it!
Livia
Flaminia
Lucrezia
Sabrina is really an English name!
