I saw it on that 4 year old program, the boy was adorable! His name was Enzo... I had never heard of it, but really like it.

Thoughts?

I think it's short for the Italian name Lorenzo. I think it's ok but I wouldn't be surprised if other come on to ask if you have any Italian connections, implying, or even simply saying, that if you don't you shouldn't use it.

I'm not keen

Enzo Ferrari

I like Enzo!

ProseccoBitch · 16/11/2016 14:51

It sounds like a name for a dog to me, sorry.

My 12 yr old DS has just announced he wants to be called Enzo! His name is Lawrence and he thinks it's a cool nn Wink

septembersunshine · 16/11/2016 19:28

Sounds like a character from seasame street!

ReadySteadyNo · 16/11/2016 19:29

I came to say what september said.

Love Lorenzo, is Enzo a nick name !
Could you tell us your surname OP, or similar !

orangebird69 · 16/11/2016 20:17

Love Lorenzo/Enzo but unless you have some Italian somewhere in your family I think it would be a bit weird to call your baby by that name.

allegretto · 16/11/2016 21:43

mumsnit - if he's called Lawrence (Lorenzo in Italian) then he's already halfway there!

SausageSoda · 16/11/2016 23:06

I like it but I think that's because I also watched the programme and yes, the boy was adorable!

KlingybunFistelvase · 17/11/2016 09:12

I didn't see the program and can only envisage it on an adult for some reason! I don't like it that much but don't hate it either.

Enzo Ferrari - possibly one of the most famous names in Italy - founder of Ferrari.

This car is the Enzo, named for him obviously. It's a cool name but the association will probably be brought up quite a lot.

Enzo

I prefer Ezio

timeforabrewnow · 18/11/2016 16:31

woof woof Enzo

JudgeJudySheidlin · 19/11/2016 00:00

Cool name! Go for it

YellowOfficeBlock · 19/11/2016 00:14

We have an Enzo, he's 4 and adorable, but he's a beagle!

I still quite like it though

Enzo
QueenOfTheNaps · 19/11/2016 00:43

If you have Italian roots/connections then yes it's fab!

HearTheThunderRoar · 19/11/2016 00:49

I know a toddler Enzo (I'm pretty sure no Italian heritage) and I was a bit Hmm when I was first heard the name but it's really grown on me now.

Honeybee79 · 19/11/2016 09:38

As a shortening of Lorenzo it's quite nice and v much suited the little boy on tv!

Does make me think a bit of Benzos tho.

griffinsss · 21/11/2016 00:47

My brother is Enzo, but it is short for Lorenzo. He's currently a cool teenager and going as "Ren" but he'll always be little Enzo to me.

I think Enzo is actually quite a lovely stand alone name.

griffinsss · 21/11/2016 00:47

But clearly I think it's very cutesy! Probably why my brother hates it!

sandgrown · 21/11/2016 01:00

Prefer Lorenzo with Renzo as a nickname .
