[Opinions] Re: Antonio or Aurelio?
in reply to a message by ensemblestaaar
This is coming from a US perspective, so take that however you like.
I would pick Antonio. Aurelio is rare and its pronunciation ambiguous to an English speaker.
If you hate the idea of being called Tony, though, don't pick Antonio, because you'll definitely get called that, especially in places where people are still shying away from going by an ethnic sounding name.

Thank you so much for your input!! My country used to be a Spanish colony so I think people are used to Spanish-sounding names. I am leaning towards Antonio too now, so thanks for the help!
