Boys name Aquilla

[audley]

nn Aqua, it's biblical and I like it! Any thoughts???

Yes, it is with one L in the bible, but I had seen it elsewhere with 2, but it has been pointed out that it's a girls name with two L's lol, so I would use Aquila.

MissusLindt, the water association doesn't bother me as we have no Italian links, I think of the colour more, and as I also like Blue, Red,Indigo and Violet as names I rather like it!

I think it sounds very much like Attila, as in Hun.

It also sounds a bit like an Arabic girls' name meaning clever.

im afraid IMHO it is uber-poncetastic!

It means eagle in Italian as well as Latin (pronounced Akweela with the emphasis on the A) and as Bucharest says it's also a town. It has no links with water, which is actually Acqua, there is no common root. We're you thinking it was a colour? Are you after a colour name in Italian?

It was also a 90s kids' tv show about 2 boys who found a spaceship of that name.

Ah, sorry. My Italian language skills stop at ordering drinks

And my German skills only go as far as ordering food.

Ein Bier bitte!

Hi Brangeline, I meant the nn Aqua is a colour, close to cyan, i.e blue-green!

Fanjo, Uber-poncetastic is ringing loud alarm bells though , I thought it would be too little known to be on the scale, oh dear me...
I like the spaceship connection though

It's too 'Try-Hard'

Oh dear, the poor child.
