HelpItalian quadruplets
I read a news item concerning an Italian set of quadruplets, one boy and three girls. Their names are: Axel, Alyssa, Tracy and Faith. The parents already have three older children, named Ethan, Aida and Dilan (in this spelling). They might be quite run-of-the-mill names but they actually look odd and slightly tacky in Italian (plus at least Faith will probably have her name mispronounced her entire life) since foreign names aren't really used.

They look tacky as a group in English as well. Yuck.

So many amazing, lovely Italian names. And they go with these??

Disappointing. Just from the names, they look like they're American and happen to be living in Italy.

Nooo so many awesome Italian names and they chose Tracy??

Definitely a bit strange for an Italian family. I can't imagine how Italians would try to pronounce Faith, but the thought is amusing. And the 'y' in Alyssa and Tracy has got to be difficult. Do you know if they had some kind of American / English-speaking connection? Or maybe they just thought it was hip.
Come to think of it, it's odd that there's a 'y' in Alyssa (instead of Alissa, which would work better in Italian) but have a son named Dilan instead of Dylan.

Wow. Never would I have guessed those names belonged to Italian quadruplets.
I wonder why they chose foreign names for all their children.
