Family Names

[nearlyalegume.livejournal.com]

*pouts*  Well everyone else is doing it!!

These are names from both sides of my family.  Generations are by colours - my great-grandparents' generation, my grandparents' generation, my parents' generation, my generation and the next generation.

Both Sides that I know of, in sibsets.  Not all spouses are listed after the grandparent generation.:

Amadeo ('AH-ma-DAY-oh') married Emilia

Almerina Maria married Leone ('Lee-OH-nay')

Ida Nellie married Ernest Wilfred

Dino ('DEE-no', known as Dean)
Tina (formerly Ernestina, named after a dead uncle, she changed it when she was in her fifties)
Rosa (known as Rose)
Dina ('DEE-nah', yes, sister of Dean... imaginative parents indeed)

I could see the switches through the generations. I also see that you have some Italian :)

I love the name Emilia. My husband and I have a very Italian last name and I think it'd sound really pretty with it, but he hates it.

the spelling Alyxandra made me cringe a little.

It makes me cringe too, but her mother is... how shall I put it? A free spirit. I think she's the only one who thinks that spelling Alexandra with a random y was a good idea...
