Re: Is there a female name Mattea or Mathea?
in reply to a message by Ylva
Actually Mattea is an old name - John Cabot's (the explorer) wife's name was Mattea - Cabot was born in 1450.
Our daughter's name is Mattea (she's 21) and we pronounce it
Maa - tea - a, we thought it sounds softer that way than the way Kathy Mattea (the singer) is pronounced Maa tay a
