Italian girl names...

I'm looking for suggestions for Italian girl names that DON'T end in an "a." Her first name and last name will both end with "a," so I'd like to pick a middle name that doesn't end in an "a." I'm stumped! Any ideas would be much appreciated!!!

TIA! Chat Icon

Re: Italian girl names...

i just did a quick search and i was shocked that there weren't more italian names that don't end in the letter A.

I found Felice and Caryn/Carin although Caryn said it was both from Irish/Gaelic descent and italian?!

That's gonna be tough since the "a" denotes feminine.

The only name I can think of is "Matilde" Chat Icon

If we were having a girl we would name her Juiliana Marie.

Did a search...slim pickings lol

Agnese
Beatie
Beatrice
Caprice
celeste
Dafne
Edvige
Natale
Noemi
Rachele
Salvatrice

ETA: For a middle name how about Marie? While Marie is not authentic Italian, I think of it as an "Italian" name, maybe bc all the Marie's I know are Italian American?

Thanks for all of your suggestions girls!! I'm not at all opposed to using an Italian American name, so if you ladies have suggestions of Italian American names, that would be great too! The only reason I'm not going with Marie is because half the women in my family have that name already. haha! The pickings really are slim without using a name with an "a" on the end!

Valerie
Danielle
Marie
Roseanne
Josephine
Joanne
Grace
Rachelle

Funny...all the rest end in "a".

eta - I saw you mentioned not minding Italian - American names. What about a modification of some of the "-a" names? Like Gabrielle (instead of Gabriella) or

Sophie
Annabelle
Adrienne
Isabelle
Elaine
Marielle
Nicolette
Roseanne
Sylvie
Violette

LOL!

Let's see. . .
no ending in A rules out my whole family, how funny!
never really noticed that before! I cannot think of one name

I know a Dominique and Stefanie - but I dont think those are "genuine" Italian names.
