The thing with Italian names, according to my mother who was born and raised there, is that many of the names that seem very glamorous to us, like Serafina, Carmela, Concetta, are considered kind of "trashy", or to be less harsh, trendy names (albeit names that have been around for a while) in Italy. It's hard to distinguish between these names and names with a more "dignified" connotation, but some are:

---

Alessandra
Mariana
Sofia
Lucretia
Livia

---

ETA: Antonia, Caterina, Giuliana
