A new name for boys

Ok first of all, this is my first started thread and I’m nervous. Hello!
Anyway I am a name nerd, an aspiring writer, and a non-mom so far. I am in my twenties and I love names.
I recently came across the name as a surname that’s seems like a first name. It’s a Italian since I live in an area with many people of Italian descent.

The name is

            [name]Bartolomeo[/name]

 and it is believed pronounced [name]Bar[/name]-toe-low-[name]May[/name]-o.

It is, I believe, an Italian form of [name]Bartholomew[/name]. I think personally it is really cute and has great nickname potential from Tolly to [name]Teo[/name], to [name]Meo[/name]?

I would love what you would think. It’s really distinctive and I would it would be sweet.

I love [name]Bartholomew[/name] and some of its international versions are wonderful too. The Italian [name]Bartolomeo[/name], the Spanish Bartolomé and the French Barthélemy are also quite appealing to me. Since you live in an Italian area, a boy name [name]Bartolomeo[/name] would fit right in.

I think as you live in an Italian area it would fit in well. [name]Bartholomew[/name] and his variations are a bit too much for me, but if you like it, I’d say it’s definitely usable.
