Mattea /
Mattia - or in any other spelling variation you prefer. I would think this to be a feminine form of
Matthias - a name which I rather like.
Mattie is a beautiful nick name, of which I first learned from
Edith Wharton's story "
Ethan Frome". It is difficult not to love this character.
Also, if you like, the name
Mattie bears sufficient strength to stand as a real (legal) name, at least to me. I hope you let us know the name you choose.
Congratulations & Best of Luck!
