Georgiana or Adriana

[Mylittlegirl234]

Which do you prefer and why please?

And if Adriana would you spell it this way or Adrianna

Adriana = Sopranos.

Sorry.

Georgiana.

Adriana reminds me of Adrian, which I don't like, and drains.

Prefer Georgia or Anna.
Not mixed together.

How would you pronounce Georgiana? I used to think it was how it was spelled but I understand that the Duchess of Devonshire used to pronounce it Georg -eye- an. Would it annoy you if someone pronounced it that way?

Adriana.

Georgiana sounds pretentious to me.

Sorry, Georg-eye-na. Autocorrect.

I would pronounce it George-EE-ah-na if that makes sense?
I’ve never seen Sopranos so didn’t realise there was a character called Adriana.

I much prefer Adriana!

I don't like Adriana at all.
So between the two I'd choose Georgiana.

Antonia?
Anna?

Georgiana

Georgiana is pronounced George-aina or Georgy-ahna.
People will also say Georgie-anna.
It will get mixed up with Georgina.
Adriana will get Aid-ree-ahna, adrian-uh, Ad-ree-ahna, Aidree-anna etc.
I wouldn;t use either of them. Too long.

Georgiana every time. I'm a big P and P fan and love that name.

Adriana, I have a lovely SIL with this name, she's Brazilian and goes by Drica for short.

George-ay-nah was the fashionable pronounciation amongst the upper classes of the day, especially those with Whig tendancies. The film pronounciation is reflective of the the Duchess being the top Influencer of her day and setting herself apart with an elite and rare pronounciation of what was not otherwise such a rare name.
Today is it back to Georgie-aana except for the niche pedants.

Adriana is beautiful and no longer than say Isabella, Antonia or Anastasia. Lovely name!

Or Elizabeth or Alexandra.
Izzy/Bella, Toni/Tonia, Ana/Stacey
and the many diminutives of Elizabeth and Alexandra.
You can insist on the full name, but you can't guarantee that everyone will use it.

I like both, but prefer Georgiana. I love all the George names.

Prefer Adriana

I prefer Georgiana.

Both are beautiful but are you or DP of Italian descent? I feel like both names could only be pulled off by Italian/Sicilian person.

Otherwise Adrianna would just sound like her parents were fans of The Sopranos.

Georgiana is not an Italian name.

How about Georgina?
