Re: Italian names...hep me, please!!!
in reply to a message by Felie
Niccolò - I love it! So much more alluring than dreary Nicholas (and to an English speaker Nicola is always going to sound feminine)
Flavio - I also love this, especially for the Roman flavour...
Tancredi - if I had the merest hint of Italian heritage this would be first choice for a son. I adore it!
Filippo, Martino, Bernardo - I feel exactly the same about these three names - 3 exceptionally dreary English names, that aren't any more exciting because of the Italianate ending. Dislike them equally...

Hi !!!
Thank you !!
I loved your detailed comment!
I was trying to thought about them as possoble choices for future children (so if they are among my favourites).
With your comment I realized that Bernardo and Martino are not good and dated also here.
I like Filippo but unfortunately it is my cousin's name.
Niccolò, Flavio amd Tancredi had passed this exam!
Byeeeeeee
