Or . . .
How about Italian forms of German names. I love seeing how one culture alters another. It's like seeing someone you know dressed up in clothing that's obviously not their own. (Yes, I know English does this too. But the perspective makes it much more difficult to see than if two other cultures are doing it, if that makes sense.)Anyway, something along the lines of Federica, Sigefriedo, Matelda, Rudolpho, Ludovica, Osvaldo, Imelda, Erminia, Ersilia, Ermelinda, Bertoldo? OK. So a little "out there." But so is Adelheid. A cute nn could really make it work: Ludovica, nn Vicky? Erminia, nn Minnie? Bertoldo, nn Bertie? Well, it's the end of the day and I'm bored. What do you expect? :-)
