Could be Nicolas or straight Nico. Mainly worried about posh/pretentious…

Italian family

I’m Italian but my first thought would be that the parents went to art school and listen to the velvet underground

Girl, velvet underground

Love the name I knew twins Nico and Giuseppe (Pepe)
Not Italian at all but there parents worked there for a few years and loved the country and culture etc

Vicliz24 · 09/06/2023 20:41

The Velvet Underground

Or showing our impeccable taste in music

The one I know is Italian - short for Niccolo/Nicolo. That said lots of Italian girl names are currently popular and used without the family necessarily having an Italian heritage, so I don't see why that couldn't be the case for a boys' name too.

Love it, can't use it though. I would think of the F1 drivers, also Neko pronounced nee ko is Japanese for cat

I'd think that you or the baby's father had Italian roots!
