[name_f]My[/name_f] great grandmother who was of [name_m]German[/name_m] decent was named [name_f]Estella[/name_f] “[name_f]Stella[/name_f]” so definitely not :slight_smile:

No, definitely not! I find [name_f]Stella[/name_f] quite international.

[name_f]Stella[/name_f] isn’t particularly Italian to me. It’s a multi-cultural option. The most well-known [name_f]Stella[/name_f] is fashion designer [name_f]Stella[/name_f] McCartney and she’s English.

The first [name_f]Stella[/name_f] I knew was [name_m]French[/name_m]-Canadian, so a no from me,

It’s definitely one of those very international sounding names.

I have a friend named [name_f]Stella[/name_f] whose Mexican, so not really.

I think [name_f]Stella[/name_f] is very international. [name_f]My[/name_f] great uncle married (and divorced) a [name_f]Stella[/name_f] who was as English as could be. [name_f]My[/name_f] friend’s little sister’s name is [name_f]Stella[/name_f] and she’s Canadian but lives in [name_f]Florida[/name_f]. I love the name [name_f]Stella[/name_f]!

[name_f]Stella[/name_f] strikes me as being an English name.

[name_f]Stella[/name_f] is a latin word, making it very international. No specific heritage / ethnicity comes to mind with this one.

It makes me think of Streetcar Named Desire before anything else.

Haha, I think it does that for a lot of people.

Results are 40 no and 1 says yes. Interesting.

No, I’ve never even thought it might sound Italian to someone.
