Re: Name a daughter? (O)
I would probably say Ottavia or Ottaviana as of late. Ophelia if I was feeling less adventurous. I like Octavia fine but the Italian variants just sound so much more soft & appealing to my ears. Today I'll say Ottavia Rosalind. Other ideas: Ottavia Anneliese, Ottavia Isabella, Ottavia Bibiana, Ottavia Pascaline, Ottavia Enid MagdaleneOttaviana Nicolette, Ottaviana Celine, Ottaviana Elettra, Ottaviana Crocifissa, Ottaviana Verbena, Ottaviana EléontineOphelia Madeline, Ophelia Clarisse, Ophelia Lorelei, Ophelia Bernadette, Ophelia DaniellaOrabella Christiane, Orabella Giannina, Orabella FelicityOpal Lavender, Opal Persephone, Opal Christiana, Opal Elisabetta, Opal Cecilla, Opal Liviana, Opal Sophia, Opal Mignonette RoseOsanna Adele, Osanna Caterina, Osanna VittoriaOona Clarissa June*I used a but of an Italian theme today to mix it up a littlePlease rate my "Names I would Use" list & "Backup Favorites" list. Feel free to rate some of my other lists too if you have the time.

Thank you! I hadn't even thought about Ottaviana! I'm not even sure I have ever heard or seen it before! But I love it. Thank you for bringing it to my attention. Octavia is one of my favorites and has been for years, Freya was almost named Octavia! But I see the appeal of Ottavia and Ottaviana. I like these of yours.Ottavia Isabella
Ottaviana Nicolette
Ottaviana Celine

Felie had told me how Ottaviana is more for elder women in Italy at the moment but I have never heard it here before so it still appeals to me in a fun, pompous way
