"Felicità" is an Italian song sung by Al Bano and Romina Power. I know this because I featured this song on my CD project.
It is stated that "Felicita" also mean happiness in Italian, but that's not very correct: the pronunciation between the two words varies: the given name has the stress on the first "i", while "happiness", has the stress on the "a". It also changes a little bit in the writing, because of the stress: the name is "Felicita" (without the stress, that usually it's not written), while "happiness" is "felicità" (and here the stress must be written).
