I am Korean...my soon to be daughter is Korean/Chinese. I really love Italian Names like Gia, Gianna, Guilianna, Brielle, etc. Do you think thats weird or brave of me for naming my daughter any of those names?

Thanks

I think that the US is such a mesh of cultures that I really wouldn't bat an eye to see a little asian girl with an Italian name like Gianna or Guilianna (I REALLY like Guilianna btw). Good Luck!

I love the idea! (: Italian names are beautiful!
I love Gianna, Guilianna, and Brielle.
My BFF is Korean, and her name is Jacqueline, and it fits her perfectly.

I don't think it would be weird. If anything, it will give her a unique name! (:

I am Italian.. if you need help/questions, feel free to ask away.
By the way, the correct name is not Guilianna, but Giuliana. It's pronounced like Juliana B)

I say GO FOR IT!! If you want some of your heritage in there give her an Asian name for her middle or a variation of one. If you love it do it.

I think a Korean/Chinese little girl would be fine with an Italian name! I think Gianna and Brielle
would be beautiful! B) Good Luck! B)
