My husband is Spanish and I’m Italian and we are combining our last names to honor both of us. In the process of adding my last name, he is dropping one of his ([name_m]Santos[/name_m]) but we still wanted to honor it, hence why we went with [name_m]Santino[/name_m]. It means “little saint” in Italian. [name_m]Jos[/name_m]é is a family name on my husband’s side too.
Our girl name is [name_f]Elena[/name_f] [name_f]Patricia[/name_f], both family names on my side.
I like it, especially since it has so much to do with you and you family! I think [name_f]Elena[/name_f] and [name_m]Santino[/name_m] go well together.
