Gorgeous.

Cornflowers35 · 03/09/2025 13:17

I like it too @AmusedZebra

Emanwenym · 03/09/2025 13:22

Adrianna will get said in several ways.
I'd say it as Ad-ree-ANN-a. Others will say Ayd-ree-AR-na (non-rhotic R) etc.

It's long so it will get shortened.

Grace as a middle name is overused.

Princesspollyyy · 03/09/2025 13:42

Awful sorry

Bluelilacbella · 03/09/2025 13:42

Why the double n?

Emanwenym · 03/09/2025 14:05

@Bluelilacbella , presumably to make the sound -anna not -ana.

Appreciate that Grace is ‘overused’ however it is my late sister’s name so will be used regardless.

More interested in its flow with Adrianna than if it’s deemed too popular or not.

Why the double n?

That’s just how I naturally spelt it without much thought.

I would be open to Adriana as well honestly.

I find it too fussy.

Emanwenym · 03/09/2025 14:28

Sorry about your sister.
The flow is fine.

LivingTheDreamish · 03/09/2025 16:15

It’s a lovely name - pretty without being too frilly - and I personally prefer the double n spelling.

PurpleChrayn · 03/09/2025 16:22

Too “Sopranos”.

Emanwenym · 03/09/2025 16:33

and I personally prefer the double n spelling. Me too but I don't like the -iana names like Liliana, Eliana, Viviana. Ariana, Juliana...

Agree. Lovely name

I know an older lady called Adrianna (said Ay-dree -Anna), known as Ade.

I don’t know any other people with the name so it feels a bit old fashioned to me, but it could grow on me. There are some nice nn options - Addy / Ade / Adie maybe?

Enko · 03/09/2025 22:43

I like it. I also love mn to have meaning and Grace certainly does for you.

RenaissanceBaby · 03/09/2025 22:47

What about Adrienne Grace? Or Adeline Grace? Slightly different flow but still similar.

Miriamfriend · 03/09/2025 23:12

Adriana just makes me think of The Sopranos

NightPuffins · 03/09/2025 23:17

It’s beautiful! Great choice, and the two go well together.

Cluborange666 · 08/09/2025 23:24

What about Adrienne?

pinkdelight · 08/09/2025 23:28

You say ‘too Sopranos’ like it’s a bad thing! It’s one of the greatest shows/works of art of our age so all good if it reminds people of that. Likewise Adrienne reminds me of Rocky, another classic. Adriana Grace (with or without the double-n) flows well and I like it, OP. Sorry about your sister. 💐

I’d choose which pronunciation you prefer first as that will dictate the way you spell it.

Adrianna: ay-dree-ANN-a
Adriana: ay-dree-AH-na

monkina · 08/09/2025 23:54

Too much like Adrian Mole for me.

AntiHop · 08/09/2025 23:56

I had it on my shortlist for dd2.
