[name]Domenico[/name] is the Italian version of [name]Dominick[/name]… what do people think of when they hear it? [name]Do[/name] they like it? THink it sounds too foreign? Too different?
I like it quite a lot-- the meter changes so different sounds are stressed. It’s very lilting and obviously a direct way to [name]Nico[/name].
I like it as well and don’t think it sounds too foreign at all. I think most people have at least heard of the [name]Dominic[/name] version, so it shouldn’t sound too unfamiliar. I also can’t think of any immediate associations I have with the name so certainly no bad references. The nn [name]Nico[/name] is certainly adorable and you still have option of using [name]Dom[/name] as well. I admit that I am a little bit more inclined to find it appealing though… I have a son named [name]Dominic[/name]. =]
