After two little boys, we’re finally getting a little princess! (She will be the first granddaughter on both sides of the family, so my mother and mother in law are going crazy) While we’re very excited, naming her is a scary challenge for us! We can’t find anything we love! What do you think would go nice with brothers [name_m]Marco[/name_m] and [name_u]Luca[/name_u]? Our last name is long so we like shorter first names; we want to find another 2 syllable name as she will also have 2 middle names and the first middle name will only be 1 syllable (sorry if that seems super confusing)!
Your children have wonderful names! I think your idea for another two syllable name is just the way to go. I don’t know many two syllable Italian girl names, but I’ll do my best to match [name_m]Marco[/name_m] and [name_u]Luca[/name_u]'s style. Can I ask what you plan for middle names?
With [name_m]Marco[/name_m] and [name_u]Luca[/name_u] I like…
[name_f]Clara[/name_f]
[name_f]Cora[/name_f] (too close to siblings?)
[name_f]Elsa[/name_f]
[name_f]Flora[/name_f]
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosa[/name_f]
[name_f]Vera[/name_f]
Marco and Luca are both very Latin/Italian sounding to me, but most of the girls names in that category seem to be more that 2 syllables. Here’s what I came up with. Sorry for any repeats.
Stella
Isla
Gemma
Phoebe
Sylvie
Georgia
Tessa
Lola
Scarlett
Ruby
Willa
Clara
Della
Lila
Olive
Esme
Cleo
Daphne
Flora
Bella
Astrid
Iris
Sophie
Daisy
Isis
Alice
Sadie
Violet
Anya
Pippa
Freya
Lyra
Hazel
Calla
Zara
Piper
Vera
Here are a few longer names that I think fit well with Marco and Luca:
Arabella
Cecilia
Paloma
Isadora
Mirabella
Celia
Delia
Cosima
Ramona
Francesca
Beatrix
Valentina
Some of those may be too close to Marco and Luca.
Sorry for any repeats, but what about…
[name_m]Marco[/name_m], [name_u]Luca[/name_u] &…
[name_f]Paola[/name_f]
[name_f]Perla[/name_f]
[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]
[name_f]Cara[/name_f]
[name_f]Aida[/name_f]
[name_f]Ava[/name_f]
[name_u]Roma[/name_u]
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f]
[name_f]Carla[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f]
[name_f]Anya[/name_f]
Good luck!
Her middle names will be [name_u]Jean[/name_u] [name_f]Angelica[/name_f], sorry that wasn’t put in the original post!
We like:
[name_f]Cora[/name_f] (but won’t use, it’s too close for us)
[name_f]Elsa[/name_f]
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosa[/name_f]
[name_f]Vera[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f]
[name_f]Isla[/name_f]
[name_f]Georgia[/name_f]
[name_f]Lola[/name_f] (but won’t use, don’t want to repeat a letter)
[name_f]Della[/name_f]
[name_f]Lila[/name_f] (same as [name_f]Lola[/name_f])
[name_f]Olive[/name_f]
[name_f]Cleo[/name_f]
[name_f]Bella[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Anya[/name_f]
[name_f]Freya[/name_f]
[name_f]Hazel[/name_f]
[name_f]Zara[/name_f]
What about [name_u]Vida[/name_u]? Its long been one of my favorite and seems to fit in with your style.
We like [name_f]Veda[/name_f] (not feeling [name_u]Vida[/name_u], sorry!)
From our current list, what do you guys think flows with [name_u]Jean[/name_u] [name_f]Angelica[/name_f] along with which goes best with [name_m]Marco[/name_m] & [name_u]Luca[/name_u]?
[name_f]Elsa[/name_f]
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosa[/name_f]
[name_f]Vera[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f]
[name_f]Isla[/name_f]
[name_f]Georgia[/name_f]
[name_f]Della[/name_f]
[name_f]Olive[/name_f]
[name_f]Cleo[/name_f]
[name_f]Bella[/name_f]
[name_f]Alice[/name_f]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Anya[/name_f]
[name_f]Freya[/name_f]
[name_f]Hazel[/name_f]
[name_f]Zara[/name_f]
[name_f]Veda[/name_f]
From the list, I like [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] or [name_f]Bella[/name_f] the best! They just seem to fit with the boys’ names.
[name_f]Bella[/name_f] [name_u]Jean[/name_u] [name_f]Angelica[/name_f] especially sounds good. I think [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] gets into too many “J” sounds with [name_u]Jean[/name_u] [name_f]Angelica[/name_f].
[name_f]Veda[/name_f] I like very much, as it’s a name from my own family tree. But it just doesn’t flow, somehow.
Other names you should consider are:
[name_f]Aida[/name_f]
[name_f]Aura[/name_f]
[name_f]Bruna[/name_f]
[name_f]Esme[/name_f]
[name_f]Ida[/name_f]
[name_f]Petra[/name_f]<- this one gets my vote! It sounds so pretty and strong: Petra Jean Angelica
Perri
Tosca
Zia
Paris
Hilda

I like [name_f]Gemma[/name_f], [name_f]Isla[/name_f], [name_f]Della[/name_f], and [name_f]Freya[/name_f] best with [name_m]Marco[/name_m] and [name_u]Luca[/name_u]. [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] [name_u]Jean[/name_u] [name_f]Angelica[/name_f] is a bit heavy on the j sound though. [name_f]Gemma[/name_f] [name_f]Angelica[/name_f] [name_u]Jean[/name_u] sounds a little better to me.
[name_f]Elsa[/name_f] - Definitely rising in popularity. Disney [name_f]Princess[/name_f]/[name_f]Queen[/name_f]. A name a little girl would love to have! Not perfect with [name_m]Marco[/name_m] & [name_u]Luca[/name_u], but it works!
[name_f]Gemma[/name_f] - sounds too old next to [name_m]Marco[/name_m] & [name_u]Luca[/name_u] [name_f]IMO[/name_f].
[name_f]Rosa[/name_f] - Very pretty, but same as [name_f]Gemma[/name_f].
[name_f]Vera[/name_f] - Cool. Matches better with [name_m]Marco[/name_m] popularity wise (I believe). Reminds me of [name_f]Vera[/name_f] Wang.
[name_f]Stella[/name_f] - [name_f]Adore[/name_f] [name_f]Stella[/name_f]. [name_m]Marco[/name_m], [name_u]Luca[/name_u] & [name_f]Stella[/name_f] sound great together! I think it fits in with the Italian theme, while not sticking out as an “Italian name” (so it’s like [name_m]Marco[/name_m] & [name_u]Luca[/name_u] stylistically I mean).
[name_f]Isla[/name_f] - Maybe sounds a bit similar to [name_u]Luca[/name_u]? the LA sound? But I guess [name_f]Stella[/name_f] and [name_f]Della[/name_f] and [name_f]Bella[/name_f] have this problem as well. IDK, just a bit. Also, not Italian enough?
[name_f]Georgia[/name_f] - Pretty, but I don’t think it fits very well.
[name_f]Della[/name_f] - Gorgeous, fits popularity wise. [name_m]Marco[/name_m], [name_u]Luca[/name_u] & [name_f]Della[/name_f] sound great together!
[name_f]Olive[/name_f] - nice, but compared to the names on this list feels like the odd one out. Very different from everything we’ve seen so far. I like how it doesn’t have the same ending as [name_u]Luca[/name_u].
[name_f]Cleo[/name_f] - I think it’s too similar to [name_m]Marco[/name_m]. [name_m]Marco[/name_m] [name_f]Cleo[/name_f] - hard C, long O. I think it’d be best if each siblings had a different ending sound. Also, maybe you’d like something a little girlier?
[name_f]Bella[/name_f] - Too girly for my taste. [name_m]Way[/name_m] overdone [name_f]IMO[/name_f].
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] - Pretty, but not Italian like the boys. [name_m]Marco[/name_m], [name_u]Luca[/name_u] & [name_f]Alice[/name_f]. Still works though.
[name_f]Violet[/name_f] - Gorgeous! I like how it has a different ending than [name_m]Marco[/name_m] & [name_u]Luca[/name_u].
[name_f]Anya[/name_f] - Another Disney [name_f]Princess[/name_f]! I like it though [name_m]Marco[/name_m], [name_u]Luca[/name_u] & [name_f]Anya[/name_f]. Fits well with the boys.
[name_f]Freya[/name_f] - I don’t think it fits very well. IDK why not. [name_m]Marco[/name_m], [name_u]Luca[/name_u] and [name_f]Freya[/name_f]. Not for me.
[name_f]Hazel[/name_f] - Pretty, but not Italian enough (if that’s something you want to keep up). Too popular.
[name_f]Zara[/name_f] - I really like this with [name_m]Marco[/name_m] & [name_u]Luca[/name_u]! Not for me, but sounds nice!
[name_f]Veda[/name_f] - I think I prefer [name_f]Vera[/name_f]. [name_f]Veda[/name_f] is a bit clunky [name_f]IMO[/name_f].
Top choices as individual names:

There were some others that we liked, such as [name_f]Lola[/name_f], but we will not be repeating a letter so L and M names cannot be used. We also eliminated a few names from our previous list that we either didn’t like as much, didn’t like with [name_m]Marco[/name_m] & [name_u]Luca[/name_u], or didn’t like with [name_u]Jean[/name_u] [name_f]Angelica[/name_f].
I thought the idea of Tessa was nice, and it is somewhat European, as are Marco and Luca. And it works very well with the middle names.
Tessa Jean Angelica
[name_m]Marco[/name_m] and [name_u]Luca[/name_u] have the Italian feel, so I am going to do the same with the girl name:
