Aria
Any thoughts on Aria?

Not really my cup of tea. It sounds a little too close to Ariana for me to like it, but that's just my opinion, so take it with a grain of salt.
It’s pretty, I like it. Arietta is nice too.
Aria and her sisters, Carol and Melody? I can't warm up to any of them.
I like it, but not enough to use. It’s pretty, very light.
It looks nice written out, but the pronunciation just doesn’t really appeal to me, it’s the same with Aurora.
It's absurd to me that a property like Pretty Little Liars seems to be responsible for such a spectacular rise in name popularity.
Anyway, it's fine. I'm cool with the mainstreaming of opera, even in this most absurd of ways.

I really like it. I think it's pretty with a lovely meaning.
I like Aria. I always saw it as a spanish name, but I guess it's actually Italian.
It is used in Spanish and other languages as well. It is derived from the Greek Areios.
The forms Arrius and Arria probably come from the Latin Arrius which in turn comes from Etruscan.
Thinking about the name since I first posted I am finding it more interesting, especially in the form Arria. There were some interesting Roman women named Arria.

I like it. Both the sound and the meaning
It doesn't really do anything for me. Kind of boring.
I'm surprised that none of the entries for this name mentioned the fact that it is an established Italian name. The masculine form of the name Ario. Alternate forms are Arina(not to be confused with the identically transliterated Russian name) and Arietta which I find more interesting than the plain Aria.
The Italian language wiki page about the name as well as the references used listed at the bottom might be of interest.

I like it pretty well. I like the sound of it, it seems pleasant and "strong" and reasonably memorable.
I don't really think of the Italian word or operas, when I see it as a name. To me it could be like a version of Arya (pop culture character, but maybe also the name popular in its own right), respelled as though to avoid association with the often-stigmatized term "Aryan." Or it could be a fashionably short version of Arianna. Seems like it resonates with popular Italian names like Gianna, Isabella, Luna .... and the apparent trend for Italian / Latin words, Mia and Bella and Nova and Stella etc.
