Pietra
While I still love Piera, I'm newly enchanted by the flintier, more poetic (to me) Pietra, which I prefer greatly to Petra. What do you think of Pietra?
Some combos:
Pietra Amaryllis
Pietra Letizia
Pietra Sofonisba
Pietra Isidora
Pietra Valentina (honoring my dad, Valentino)
Pietra Cosima
Pietra Fiammetta
Pietra Flavia
Pietra Consuelo
Pietra Delfina
Pietra Dorothea / Dorotea
Pietra Bibiana
Pietra Isotta
Pietra Violante
Pietra Adelina
Pietra Adelaida
Pietra Amy (honoring my mother)
Pietra Leonora
Pietra Salome
Pietra Angelica
Pietra Amy Angelica
Pietra Arcangela

I like Pietra a lot. I like how it skips along. It's very sharp and alert.
I like Petra (which gives me more of an impression of stone-like), although Pietra does seem more lyrical than that. I love *tra and *dra endings as a general rule. I'm vaguely reminded of Star Wars (Piett), but that's because I'm a geek and also not very familiar with Pietro.
I think it'd probably pair well with anything Italian. Pietra Sofonisba and Pietra Arcangela seem most whimsical. Violante and Salome are interesting with it. Isidora, Valentina, and Delfina are my favorites of the middle names (for combos but also individually, so I don't know how much that says about the combos).

It's much better than Petra.
I like Pietra, Piera and Petra.
Have you considered honoring both Mom and Dad with the combo Pietra Amy Valentina?
I like Pietra Angelica, Pietra Consuelo & Pietra Adelina.

I’ve been playing with Amy Valentina appended to other names (e.g., Eudora Amy Valentina). Pietra Amy Valentina is lovely! :)
ooo, I think Pietra Carmen would be a nice combo.
...I also kind of like Pietra Carmenta Valentina.

Not weird at all!! I greatly appreciate the attention!
Cosima derives from “kosmos,” which means “order” in Ancient Greek. :)
Oh, thanks. I'm no expert lol.
Of course, though, it’s now tied to the cosmos. Thanks for your comment! :)
