Cute, but Lucca should be Luca. In Italian, the double C is actually pronounced like the English "ch," which will look especially wrong when paired with Italian "Gino."

I'm pretty indifferent towards the name Gino, but I love Luca and they're a handsome pair.

Lucca wouldn't be pr. "ch" before A; the pronounciation would still be "LOOK-a". CC is pronounced "ch" only after E and I.
