Please don’t.
Uh, that's how it's pronounced in Italian...
NP. Love Alice. (Ah-lee-chay??)
Latina, not Italian, but we avoided names that had different pronunciations in English vs. Spanish for this reason when we knew we wanted a Spanish pronunciation. For this reason ended up naming our boy Javier instead of Xavier, since in English the X is frequently pronounced with a J sound.
Your kid will be forever correcting people if you name them a common name with an atypical pronunciation.

Chiara is pronounced Key-R-Uh.

There are so many beautiful names in this thread. My favorites are Francesca, Evelina (I love the full name and nicknames Evie or Lina), and Valentina.
