Nita Naldi (1897-1961) was one of the most successful silent film actresses of the "Roaring Twenties". She appeared in Cecil B. DeMille's epic film "The Ten Commandments" (1923). In her case, Nita was short for Anita.

A silly minimalist name that would lead to all sorts of ''need a'' jokes in America.
Even though it's pronounced Neeta, it reminds me of nitrates. Or someone nagging that "neatness counts." BTW, slightnightshiver is mixed up about the USA. He equates the entire nation with its lower social classes. But ALL nations have a lower social class, and they usually do not seem as fashionable as the more educated classes. He would be amazed to discover that there are many educated people in the USA.
