Adriana - what do you think?

What do you think of the name Adriana? Any associations? Would it be easy to pronounce? What kind of a child do you imagine when you hear the name? Just any thoughts really, please :)

I haven’t seen the Sopranos so it has absolutely no associations for me. The Sopranos is quite old now so a lot of people won’t have seen it.

I think it’s a pretty name without being too flowery, and unusual without being too weird.

Thank you for your comments! Crazily enough I've never seen the Sopranos and didn't even know there was an Adriana there (not that it would stop me from using the name, but I hope she was an alright character!)
Pronunciation for me would also be Add-ree-ah-na as I'm European and this is how it's pronounced where I'm from.
Would be great to hear a few more opinions, thanks again!

Add-ree-ah-na for me.

I like it.

My friend who is Spanish has a beautiful little girl called Adriana. I think it's a strong feminine name.

Although pronounced and spelt completely differently, it makes me think of drains....

Although that is clearly me

Sopranos for me too. Also sounds like the feminine version of Adrian to me.

It makes me think of the deluded rich girl on some mtv show. The hills maybe?

I'd pronounce it A-dree-ah-na

I prefer Adrienne

Sopranos

Frilly but pretty

I like it and it doesn't conjure up a set image either, so I think it's good for a child to grow into. Be warned though - you will get people saying both Aye-driana and Ah-driana
