Struggling to find a name 😫

Hello! Am due to give birth in 8 weeks with ds2 and we are really struggling with finding a name! My husband is Italian and I am half Italian, and we were brought up and live in the UK... so we would ideally like an Italian name that can be pronounced in English or an English name that sounds Italian, or with Italian syllables, if that makes sense! Any ideas anyone please? Or does anyone know of any good baby name websites?

Luca works really well, I know italian and non-italian ones. Although I'm a bit sick of hearing it as there's been one playing outside my window all summer!!

What is ds1 called?

SuperSketchy · 13/08/2021 16:49

Yes, I was going to say Luca. I also know Italian and non Italian Lucas. The Disney movie might mean there's a bit of a surge in popularity though.

I know a little Lorenzo which I think is lovely.

Alfredo? Could be Freddy, Fred or Alfie at school if he liked

Enzo and Dante are gorgeous names.
