Ilaria kinda reminds me of malaria, even though the sounds are slightly different.

Ilaria is my best friends little sister. and It's a beautiful name. I love it personally.

I'm not big on Walter, though its cute and I could get used to it. =]

I know someone called Ilaria! She's Italian. She pronounces it Ee-LA-ree-ah though =)

I don't like Walter and I don't like Ilaria, because it doesn't flow well.

I like Walter. It's actually a family name, but I don't think I'd like it if not for Walter Blythe in the Anne of Green Gables books. He was always one of my favorite characters.

Ilaria is pretty, but when I see it, or Hilary, I always think about how my baby name books say it comes from the same root as "hilarious." And how that's such a weird connotation for a name.
