Sabina - Sabine and Sabina always seem like they are missing an 'r'. I know they are different names but...
Marilena - dislike
Fenrir * first time that I see it in Italy. He is a mid 20s student - it seems ridiculous on a human. Great name for a dog
Francesco - boring
Linda - very 80s
Penelope peh-NEH-loh-peh - dislike
Amedeo - LOVE
Gilberta jeel-BEHR-tah - I love this! I find the hard 'g' in the English pronunciation of Gilbert very unattractive, but with a soft 'g' I love it, and it's very attractive feminised like this
