Cadence (English) vs. Cadencia (Spanish) vs. Cadenza (Italian)

Hey, all! Several years ago, I fell in love with the idea of using the word Cadence as a name... I loved the sound, that it’s aesthetically pleasing, that it was rare... but especially the meaning... rhythm. I liked the idea of encouraging my daughter to walk to the beat of her own drummer, so to speak... Well, now Cadence has become so popular for girls, and Caden for boys, that it’s lost a bit of shine for me, so to speak. Especially because, for many people, they no longer think "rhythm," but instead they think "trendy." I looked up "cadence" in other languages, and I like out that Cadencia is the Spanish word for cadence, and Cadenza is the Italian word for cadence... and a musical term. What do you think of each? Thanks!

Help! I love the name Guinevere, but I can't think of a really good brother and sister name for her. Since Guinevere is so empowering, I want the next names to be powerful as well. Thanks, Genie!
Baby Name Genie:
You seek the Holy Grail of names. Let me help you in your quest. The brother of fair Guinevere will fight on foot with swords aplenty, but on his horse he'll surely lance a lot. Name him Edward for a regal name. A sister could be dubbed Katherine if greatness is what you desire.
