WDYT of Rianno?

In the book Goose Girl by [name_u]Shannon[/name_u] [name_m]Hale[/name_m], the main character’s baby brother is named Rianno-Hancery. It caught my eye as I was recently reading the book again. What do you think? Rianno by itself sounds pretty nice when pronounced rye-[name_f]ANN[/name_f]-no. I don’t like the way it sounds when said ree-[name_f]ANN[/name_f]-oh. Any suggestions for similar names would be much appreciated!

I have never heard it before. I prefer [name_f]Rhiannon[/name_f]/[name_f]Riannon[/name_f] for a girl vs. Rianno. I think given the similarity to Rihannon, A Rianno would get the pronunciation that you don’t like more often than the one you do like.

Oh, and similar names would be:

[name_m]Enzo[/name_m]
[name_m]Elio[/name_m]
[name_m]Adriano[/name_m]
[name_m]Stefano[/name_m]
[name_u]Rhys[/name_u]

Thanks for the feedback!
