Agree Janine is cute. Desiree is too much like Desire - weird and sexualized for a little girl.

Although I've seen it on here lately, I never hear the name Helena. I love it. Strong, elegant, smart.

My husband is Vinchenzo and we call him Enzo. Its nice because we were able to name our son Vinchenzo and call him Vinnie so they have the same name but different nick names making it the best of both worlds in the name sake category.


Did you really use the h? It's completely wrong in Italian. It's Vincenzo.


+1. I'm usually not very judgmental about names, but I'm Italian and to me his name looks horribly misspelled. I would consider changing the spelling on his birth certificate.

haha! The name Bridget is always interesting to me. Bridget is/was the stereotypical working/low class name in Ireland...it was THE name for Irish domestic maids/servants/the "help" so much so that for a really long time, many women would actually change their names to avoid that stereotype. I'm never sure if Irish American "never been to Ireland but my last name is Sullivan or O'Reilly!!!" crowd doesn't know this or doesn't care.


Well, it was my grandmother's name and I loved her dearly regardless of the fact that she grew up on a farm. She also made her way by herself to the US as a teen and succeeded, against many odds, in raising 3 successful children. She may have been the help, but I'm very proud of her and I sport her name as my middle, always wished it was my first, and gave it to my daughter as her first name.

That said, if we'd had a second girl, I really wanted to use Dorothy.
