Baby Name Poll

Hi! I am having a bit of trouble with my mother-in-law (MIL). I’ll try to sum it up briefly, but bare with me! Basically, I am English, and my husband is Italian, and we have decided to raise our children in England. I am pregnant with twins (B/G) and my MIL is being very difficult when it comes to choosing names; she wants ’true italian names’ for her grandchildren, whereas we don’t mind having a hint of ’italian-ness’ but ultimately would prefer to have something more common in London. I think I have come up with a solution, but I would like an outsider’s opinion. What do you think of Gigliola & Alfonzo nn Lily & Alfie. My husband told me that Gigliola is basically the Italian version of Lily, and means ’as beautiful as a lily’. Do you think the nicknames are too different from the original? I do like having the classical english nicknames with their italian heritage. Middle names will be Catherine (after my mother who passed away) and we haven’t decided on a boy’s name. Thanks!
