Help[Opinions] Siena and Sienna
What do you think of Siena and Sienna? Which spelling would you choose?
I like the sound and color association. But I dislike Sienna Miller (no offense, I just don't really like her as an actress) and I feel the name has a bit of a cheap celebrity vibe because of her (similarly to Angelina). Not because the celebrities are awful but because it has this "we are huge fans" association.
That's why I much prefer Siena, it reminds me of the lovely city in Italy. But it would probably get misspelled and maybe mispronounced. On the other hand saying "Siena with one N" isn't that complicated.
I believe that Siena and Sienna have different etymologies as "sienna" is the color whereas I believe the city of Siena was named after Senius (which is a form of Vincent) but not sure...
So what do you think? And if you live in Italy (hello Felie :) ), does it work as a name there?
Thanks!
