Amelia and Bruno please?

I have two weeks and a bit before I have my baby and am still lacking a name

I have a strong Italian surname thanks to dh.Both my dc names have Italian/German/French origins and I dont want this one to seem out of place with the other two.

Have been pondering over the following names;

Claudia
Alberta
Flora

Am not 100% on any though and could really use some help please.

Thanks

Would you say Luchia or Lusia, Hatrick? Have heard it pronounced both ways.

Glad Claudia is going down well as thats top of our list

Eleonora/Eleanora is really lovely and I like Nora/Leo as nn.

Amelia gets Mimi.

I always say their full names but others tend to shorten them lol.

Bugger, Dinny - sounds like you had a fab time though! Are you in on Thursday?

Bhannae, definitely avoid Lucia then - lol!

Am surprised how popular Claudia is - I had considered it for the DSs (although clearly not once they were DSs!).
