[name_m]Hi[/name_m]! I’m due in about 4 weeks and am struggling with a middle name for my baby (if it’s a girl). We’ve decided on [name_f]Lucia[/name_f] (pronounced [name_u]Lou[/name_u]-cee-ah) but can’t decide on the middle name. We are set on [name_m]Leonardo[/name_m] [name_m]John[/name_m] for a boy. We have a very Italian last name that starts with an “S” and ends in a long “E.” The couple that we’ve discussed are:
I love thsi pronunciation of [name_f]Lucia[/name_f]. More vote for [name_f]Lucia[/name_f] [name_f]Valentina[/name_f]. You can’t go wrong with any though, both are gorgeous.
I think [name_f]Valentina[/name_f] flows better with your last name because of the S ending in [name_f]Grace[/name_f]. [name_f]Violet[/name_f] or [name_f]Victoria[/name_f] would also be pretty.
I vote for [name_m]Luc[/name_m]ía [name_f]Grace[/name_f]. I think [name_f]Lucia[/name_f] [name_f]Valentina[/name_f], with double -a ending doesn’t sound as nice as [name_m]Luc[/name_m]ía [name_f]Grace[/name_f] (but still a beautiful choice)
[name_f]Lucia[/name_f] is stunning. I like [name_f]Lucia[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f], but don’t love it. [name_f]Valentina[/name_f] doesn’t work for me, as it ends with an “a”, like [name_f]Lucia[/name_f]. [name_u]Valentine[/name_u] or [name_f]Valerie[/name_f] work, though.
