[Opinions] Fiammetta
I like it very much but there's something that stops it from entering my absolute favourites, possibly the -etta ending which I don't generally favour. WDYT?WDYTO Constanza, Eleonora and Fiammetta for sisters?

I like it, but I am not a huge fan of the -etta ending either, so it isn't a favorite. It sounds nice with Constanza and Eleonora, but I still think there might be another name out there that I would like more in its place. Not sure which though.

I'm glad to hear you approve of it. I have worried that it was a silly idea for a name in Italian.I like it a lot. The etta bothers me too, because I don't want it to be diminutive, you know? It sounds so pwoerful. I especially like the mm and the tt. Fiametta is a totally different sentiment. My only combos are, of course, Anna Fiammetta and Maria Fiammetta, but I do like it as a first name.Very classy set. I think all of those names are in the "long and dashing" section of my PNL.

Fiammetta sounds like some kind of fancy cheese you would use for Italian food.

I know what you mean about "-etta" endings. But Fiammetta has a charming quality to it that I find very appealing. Fiammetta sparkles (no pun intended.) I think it's the "Fia-" beginning that is so unusual. It intrigues.Constanza, Eleonora and Fiammetta sound fantastic as sisters. Don't mess with that trio. :-) I especially love seeing Constanza being considered. What a kick-a$$ name.

I really like fire-related names and I've thought a lot about Fiammetta. It has just never really... Idk, it feels just as not a "realreal" name. More of a nickname a fiery person could get. Maybe that's, as you pointed out, because of the -etta ending. I really like Azar (on my PNL), Pyrrhus and Plamen, though. One of my favourite GPs is Firebird. Another one is Bastet.Constanza is a beautiful name and Eleonora fits here in beautifully. Fiammetta - yep, when I think of the colour (golden - by Eleonora blue and Constanza is wine red). But -etta kind of drives me away. I really don't know. Both Constanza and Eleonora are rich, very feminine names, when Fiammetta has got more of a "puella ludens"-image, at least to me.

Fiammetta is just gorgeous and those names for siblings are great
