I love this name a lot. It's like Fred/Frederick but with a strange Italian twist, and I've never heard of it before so it's unique.

Good nicknames for Frediano would be Fred, Freddie, and or Freddy.

What an interesting alternative to Frederick / Frederico / Alfredo / all of the other "Fred" names! I'm surprised I've never seen it before, but it doesn't seem to be a common name even in Italy. [noted -ed]

The Italian pronunciation of "Frediano":
Freyh-Dee-Ah-No
In "Fre," roll your "R"-- "E" equals nearly "Aye." Stress your "I" to "EE," following closely with "A" as in "Father" (this run, when spoken, may sandwich together to create more of a "Dyah," however). "No" is as usual in English, "Noh."

To my Midwestern eyes and ears, this name initially looked and sounded like an Italian suffix was haphazardly tacked onto the name Fred—not very pretty.
However, after pronouncing it more according to the IPA guide, this name sounds very dignified and lovely. :) The variation Fridiano might also make a nice alternative, and it’s harder to mispronounce.
