Help[Opinions] WDYT of these Portuguese Names?
Here is a list of Portuguese Names I really like, WDYT?
Ones marked * I really would use.
Some have accents over the names but I cannot do them.
I asked for the correct pronouncations from my mother on how to say them in Portuguese.
Yes Cruz, Joaquin (this spelling, and Joaquim), and Antonio are also Portuguese :).
I would use the portuguese pronouncations if I ever used: Joaquin, Cruz, possibly David (I do like the English version too), Neves, and Rui. Although I don't expect people to say them correctly, lol.
GIRLS
Augusta (ah-goosht-uh)
Clara (cl-uhra)
Diana (dee-auhna)
Fia (fee-uh)
Iris * (not sure how to say it, didn't ask)
Isadora (same as Iris)
Ligia (lah-gzhee-uh)
Neves (nehvsh) *
Rio * (hre-oo)
BOYS
Abel (a-bell)
Antonio * (an-toe-nee-ooh)
Cruz * (croosh)
David * (dah-veed)
Elias * (eli-esh)
Felipe (I forgot how it's pronounced, I didn't ask)
Gabriel (gab-ree-el)
Joaquin * (zho-ah-kee)
Rio * (hre-oo)
Rodrigo (roo-dree-goo)
Rui (hrooy)
