Welcome from Ohio

My daughter chose the name to celebrate her Italian heritage from her Father's side of the family.

Thank you gCathie

When I was growing up, my name was very unusual, but now it seems to be quite popular...it actually seems to be quite 'trendy' in the UK presently :D

'Trendy' names are making a comeback. :mrgreen:
