Baby Girl?
| Wed, 03-28-2007 - 2:12pm |
I'm due in early September and we recently found that we are having a little girl. :) We are having some trouble finding names. I am trying to avoid trendy names, but instead would like a classic name. I would like to name our little princess after a family member (we might run into some trends with this), but that isn't necessary. These are what we came up with so far:
Sofia Margaret (after my two grandmothers)
Olivia Ryan (mn after my husband)
Gianna (I just like these classic Italian names)
Adrianna
Vittoria (after my sister)
Alessandra (nickname Ali)
Talia (also nicknamed Ali)
Can anyone give me any suggestions?
Thanks,
Michelle

I also forgot to add these two names:
Alessandra (nickname Ali)
Talia (also nicknamed Ali)
Thanks,

I really love Gianna, it's a beautiful name and not too popular. I also love Sophia and Olivia but they're pretty common. Have you considered Allegra? I think it's a beautiful Italian name (I am Italian and that is one of our family names), Ali could be nn.
I also like Francesca and Lucia (Italian pronounciation= LOOCHIA)
Good luck and congrats on your baby girl!
I like all the names on the list.

Olivia and Sofia have both gotten pretty popular in recent years; that said, they are two of my favorite girl names. Instead of Gianna, I really like Giovanna (nn Gigi); I also like Alessandra.
Here are some other suggestions (that I think fit pretty well with what you've already come up with):
Daniela
Georgianna
Brenna
Isabella
Julianna
Liliana
Natalia
Samantha

Mom to triplets Genevieve Rose, Charlotte Elise, and Nathaniel Bennett, and Amelia Jane. We have twins on the way, September 2009.
I agree with the PPs, Sophia/Sofia is VERY popular, as is Olivia.
I really like Gianna, or the PPs suggestion of Giovanna. I know a Giovanna who goes by Gio. She's such a cutie!
And I agree Talia is nice w/o a nickname.
Here are some other ideas:
Alessia
Bianca
Carmela
Daniela
Elena
Juliana
Lidia
Liliana
Luisa
Marisa
Teresa
Viviana
HTH!

ETA: I forgot to mention I also REALLY like Adrianna or Arianna.

Is it Vittoria? or did you mean Victoria? That and Alessandra would be on the bottom of my list (of your list, lol).
