Sounds like a textbook

It is a bit odd.

I know a baby Italia because I'm related to one but it's a traveller family the names are all quite different.

What about Italia Conti?

What about Tom Conti?

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 15/02/2017 12:04

Just no ..

That's pretty unanimous Grin I wondered if it was a real name, or used much at all. I had thought it sounded odd, as I said. Suspicions confirmed then.

I didn't realise Italia Conti was a person, I've heard of it but didn't put two and two together, I just thought it was the name of the school. Was that her real name?

It's awful.

It might do as a middle name. First name Viva.

MaryWortleyMontagu · 15/02/2017 21:51

What about ilaria? Lovely name!

EssentialHummus · 15/02/2017 21:52

Nope. Natalia/Talia.

Terramirabilis · 15/02/2017 22:33

Looks like Italia was her real name, based on a quick google, @akwgreen

MrsBungle · 15/02/2017 22:36

I know an Italia. She's 8.

GooseyLoosey · 15/02/2017 22:36

No.

There's a Canadian actress called Italia Ricci. Turns up in quite a few things.

Thank you Terra (and everyone else)

I think this one has been shelved permanently. Thanks for your replies.

Maybe Natalia or Tahlia instead

EightiethElement · 17/02/2017 22:52

No.

Ireland (Baldwin) is the same idea but I find 5hat an odd choice

Better home she doesn't join the army and become a général.
