Does it sound strange

Danalyn13

when both the first and last name end in an A?

Example: Carolina Konya or Daniella Konya

(Last name rhymes with Tonya)

Not unless the middle name does too.

Ha! Good point. I would LOVE a name like Gianna or Juliana, but unfortunately our last name rhymes with every pretty feminine Italian name . Wahh!

What is the last name?

We are very italian and all my kidshave extremely italian names....maybe i could help.

No. I think it flows nicely

I don't think it sounds weird unless it rhymes.

Sometimes I think it sounds weird, but not in these cases. I don't think the A's sound the same.

Unlike the Leah Sophia post below, which does sound weird to me.

jennasita

I think it's fine!

Ramby

I think they have different -a sounds...

'Car-o-lee-nuh' and 'Dan-yel-luh'

compared to 'Kon-yuh'

I don't think it's too much, maybe it would if it was the same -a sound though.

taurus424

no they are both cute combonations!

tusshie2004

No, it sounds perfectly fine.

Thanks! Our last name is not from our Italian side-it's Konya (rhymes with Tonya)...

 So Gianna Konya or Adriana Konya completely ryhyme   Any other pretty names you can think of?

I had the same problem. All the names I loved rhymed w/ my last name or were too similar.  I like Carolina that you suggested.  My only caution would be to the first and last name beginning w/ the same sound too.

You're right all of the Italian names I can think of end w/ 'a'.  Gina or Gia would be an alternative to Gianna.  Phoebe, Capri?
