Which name do you prefer out of the 3?

Alberto, Valentino or Leonardo?

Nicknames would be Bertie, Tino & Leo?

Alberto

I like Valentino best as I really like Tino, it has a cool vibe

ThatPosterIsSoRight · 26/03/2022 14:56

Valentino, definitely

KylieCharlene · 26/03/2022 14:53

Leonardo

Alberto - Because Bertie is unusual (uk Alberts are usually Alfie).

I like Leo but it’s so popular
Not keen on Valentino/Tino, it also has quite a feminine vibe, if that bothers you

I absolutely love Italian boys names. All lovely choices but I’d probably choose Valentino/Tino. I’m not sure where you’re based (I’m in the SouthEast) but Leo is probably the most most popular boys name I’ve been hearing in the last 3 years. Good luck.

They're all great in different ways I think.

Are you Italian OP? My favourite is Leonardo. Love Leo.

They’re pretty unusual first names so it depends on how it would flow with the second name for me. I appreciate you might not want to tell us that though. Going by the nicknames he’d be called I’d definitely go for Valentino. Leo I think is quite boring and common. Bertie to me is more of a dogs name and makes me think of the muppets character.
