[Facts] Re: Mattea?
in reply to a message by raindancing
Mattea would simply be a feminine form of Matteo. However, it is evidently quite rare as a female given name in Italy. It is also, however, an Italian surname based on Matteo. In that role it is well-known in the USA through the country singer Kathy Mattea, and she seems to have inspired a lot of the girls given Mattea as a first name.
But in any event, it's a feminine version of Matteo or Matthew.
