Re: boys' names that sound good both in English and Italian
in reply to a message by lady murasaki
Hmmm. An interesting task. Here in the U.S., names are getting pretty international (a good thing) so I can see some Italian names blending right in. How about:
Alessandro (nn Sandro)
Vincenzo (nn Vince)
Samuele (nn Sam)
Roberto (nn Rob, Bertie, Robin)
Tomaso (nn Tom)
Marco (I've always loved this and thought it would make such a dashing name for a man anywhere in the world)
Nicolo (nn Nick)
Leonardo (nn Leo)
Marius (does ancient Rome count?)
Armando
Matteo
Carlo
Bernardo [nn Bear? ;-)]
Have you ever considered Marco?
