Benedetta

Great name! I love Italian names!

I think this name can be a good choice for couples that had difficulty with having a child (I think it has a beautiful meaning and it also gives good luck). I think it's also an easy name to pronounce.

My sister is named after our paternal great grandmother Benedetta from Sicily. They Americanized her birth name as "Banadita". We have a nickname of "Bonnie".

I love this name. It has a beautiful meaning, sounds nice when you say it, and looks pretty written down. It doesn't have the harshness of the "ct" in Benedicta.

From personal experience-it is a rather hard name to live with. I have always had my name mispronounced-sometimes accidently, sometimes purposely! I am most commonly called Bernadette. It is a name that is hard on a child but is constantly admired by everyone who hears it (now that I am an adult, I hear compliments about it being a beautiful name almost non-stop). An easier way to go is to adopt a nickname with this name-I use variations of Bennie.
