HelpRe: Recent ancestor names
in reply to a message by Joiya
I love Conchita. It's so cool.
Don't know how usable it is, but IIWY I'd be tempted to at least make it a middle name.
Concetta feels more awkward to say, for me - I guess I've just had more Spanish than Italian in my life.
I like Robert, Charles, Rebecca, Mario, Francesca, Antonina. There aren't really any bad ones there, although Pedro and Mario are a little stereotypey to be usable (ymmv). Probably Salvatore too.
Since you mentioned shortening names, I kinda like Lando (LAHN-do not LAND-o) for Orlando. But that's farfetched I guess.
Antonina could be Nina, which is cool.
Let's say I had to name your kid using these names ... I'd probably pick something like Mariana Conchita or Antonina "Nina" Andrea, and Francisco (alternately Francis) Orlando.
