[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm Italian and I don't care for Giovanna - although I do like Giada.

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ava, Mia, Gia, Eve, Eli, Ian. I don't like the 3 letter names. I also don't like Nate/Nathaniel/Nathan. Every Nate I have known has been whiney. There are  lots of good names for boys in the top 15 that I never hear anymore. Christopher is cute. So is Andrew. And Ryan. Good names, still at the top of the lists, but everyone I know names their kids Jadyn or Brody.  For girls I hear the top 10 over and over and it's revolting. The only name in the girls top 15 I can tolerate is Abigail/Abby. That's cute.[/quote]

Gia is actually the shortened version/nickname for Giovanna. If you are Italian, I think that is a lovely name.[/quote][/quote]

I don't know what the English version of Giada is, but Giovanna is Italian for Joanna. It does have a touch of the theatrical but so do many Italian names. Caring for it isn't based on being Italian or not, it's just not many non-Italians would choose a name like Giovanna/Giuseppe or any of the other very Italian names: Chiara, Alessandro, Paolo, Federica, etc.[/quote]
