Managed to have a good chat about girl names with my OH and he’s basically given me carte blanche to pick a first name I love if we use his aunt’s name, Antoniett@ as a middle. I actually really like the name so it’s not a problem for me!
One complication though is that our last name starts with a G so with an A middle initial lots of options are ruled out (SAG, FAG, BAG etc).
But we both really think we like [name_f]Ida[/name_f]. So what do people make of Id@ Antoniett@? The latter is a fairly rare Italian version of [name_f]Antoinette[/name_f].
I think the name is gorgeous. It flows very nicely, and I’ve always thought [name_f]Ida[/name_f] would be the cutest name for a little girl! I live in a very Italian community and have only met someone with her middle name once or so, so most people may not have heard of it before, if that influences your decision at all. Good luck finding a name
[name_m]Ah[/name_m] I’m glad people like it! It really feels like it could be the name - if we end up actually having a girl… if it’s a boy we’re in trouble!
It’s so stylish yet vintage, with real renaissance beauty. It’s so lovely. I think [name_f]Antoinette[/name_f] is better than Antoinetta, but it’s still really nice either way.
I like [name_f]Ida[/name_f] Antoinetta. I agree with the poster above me that [name_f]Ida[/name_f] [name_f]Antoinette[/name_f] flows better, but I understand wanting to keep the honor name in full.
