My friend is Italian as is her partner, but they live
in the uk. She wants opinions on this Italian name for her son.

Think it's lovely

I love it, but my family are sicilian.

Isn't it a brand of Beer?

I love it, slightly biased though as ds is Santino

It’s fine.

Might be a bit odd with no Italian roots.

Having Italian parents might be construed as having Italian roots.

I think it's a good name.

Isn't the older brother in the Godfather called Santino?

It's fine. Given the parents are Italian no one is going to think anything of the name.

Lovely, easy for the Brits to pronounce and spell but still a solid Italian name 😀

Really nice name.

Very rare in Italy (only 8 born in the last year the records have been published for, which is 2020)
Means "little Saint" which is a bit twee.
