I recently posted about the name Alexander Giovanni but I think that its too much with our 5 syllable Italian last name.

Any suggestions that are similar to either Alexander or the combo??

    We do as well. I want it for a first name but dh said no because I'm not Italian, while he's 100% Italian.

    I think Vincent would work well and is in the same realm as Alexander.  My cousin, who is very Italian, included Vincent as a middle name and it works with their last name.

    Vincent Giovanni.....yup, that works well!

    Matteo
    Angelo
    Luca Giovanni
    Sebastian (doesn't shorten the long name at all, but goes well in Italian and English)

    Tell your hubby I say boo hiss! Does this mean no Italian names as fns? Not even a shorter one, like Pietro?

    So he says. I think he's being ridiculous. Its not like neither one of us is Italian.

    I love it too. But my sister in law said it was too many syllables and now that's all I can think about.

    We're going with Alexander Michael, it's not as many syllables, but still long.  I say go with it.  Do you think you will call him Alexander or shorten it to Alex?  My name is fairly long as well Abigail Miranda and I don't think it's a big deal.
