I love [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Vienne[/name_f]! Second, I like [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Francesca[/name_f]. I really really like [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] but I can see where you are coming from. [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] is getting a bit trendy for me, although it is it is a beautiful name.

His is short and so for me goes perfectly with a frillier middle name, especially the ones ending in -ina. The -ina names give it an Eastern European vibe that perfectly matches your older kids’ names. My favorite is [name_f]Valentina[/name_f].

Other [name_f]Ina[/name_f] names that might suit you:
[name_f]Constantina[/name_f]
[name_f]Carolina[/name_f]
[name_f]Severina[/name_f]
[name_f]Angelina[/name_f]
[name_f]Marcelina[/name_f]
[name_f]Polina[/name_f]
[name_f]Nicolina[/name_f]
[name_f]Irina[/name_f]
[name_f]Wilhelmina[/name_f]

I think [name_f]Cosima[/name_f] (if you like it) and [name_f]Arabella[/name_f], which is one of the options also sound lovely, but not in the same Eastern European vibe.

[name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Vi[/name_f]ënne - I surprisingly love this one. [name_f]Vi[/name_f]ënne is really an underused gem!
[name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Valentina[/name_f] - I love [name_f]Valentina[/name_f], but when the sound runs together a la your Evana, I keep thinking about guava instead of Giava… maybe I am just weird. ._.
[name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] - this is quite pretty.
[name_f]Gia[/name_f] Amélie - [name_u]Love[/name_u] it, I am in love with this french Amélie.
[name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] - Very nice and italian. :smiley:
[name_f]Gia[/name_f] Noëlla - love it. I think it has the exact same feel as [name_f]Eva[/name_f] [name_f]Natalia[/name_f]. :slight_smile:
[name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Francesca[/name_f] - I don’t even know [name_m]Mario[/name_m] Lopez. It’s a pretty combo.
[name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_m]Gabrielli[/name_m] - Flows well and very unique. I like the alliteration.
[name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Arabella[/name_f] - nice.

[name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]

I agree with other posters that [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] is really pretty but if you want something with an even better flow, my favorite from your options is [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Vienne[/name_f]. (Not sure how to type the … over the e). What a beautiful, exotic name!

I am really a fan of [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f], it has a slightly more exotic feel but its not too strange. it goes marvelously with your kids’ names, and I think a run-on nickname could be derived from it. I can picture [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] being called Giasera (like [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Sarah[/name_f]) or even Giaphina (sounds cute actually).

That said, I still like [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f], so I don’t think you should necessarily give up on it for good. Best of luck!

I think [name_f]Valentina[/name_f], [name_f]Sophia[/name_f], and [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] would be best if you’re looking for that lilting, rhythmic name that slightly runs together, like [name_f]Eva[/name_f] [name_f]Natalia[/name_f]. [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Valentina[/name_f] is my favorite.

[name_f]Do[/name_f] you think [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] rhymes too much? I’ve always adored [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] as a middle name.

My 5 year old daughter suggested [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Isabella[/name_f]. At first I wasn’t a fan and brushed it off, but my husband loved it. So I wrote them down together and I’m surprised that I love the way they look as a combination. I’m really starting to like the way they sound together. What are your thoughts of [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Isabella[/name_f]? Is it more fitting with my criteria than [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]?

Also, the popularity of [name_f]Isabella[/name_f] doesn’t bother me at all with it in the middle place. I see it more of a European/Latin classic than a trendy name even though it’s currently incredibly popular.

I think [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Isabella[/name_f] looks lovely next to your other names. I like it as much as I like [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] or [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f].

I just had the idea of [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Domenica[/name_f] or [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_u]Dominique[/name_u], and you could nickname her [name_f]Giada[/name_f] ([name_f]Jade[/name_f])? I prefer [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Domenica[/name_f], it flows beautifully [name_f]IMO[/name_f] and I think the nickname possibility is definitely something to consider!!!

I like [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f]. But I think [name_f]Seraphine[/name_f] flows better.

I think [name_f]Gia[/name_f] [name_f]Vienne[/name_f] is awesome!
