I like Gemma.
I actually know 2 brothers named Lorenzo and Luciano. Which is pretty close to Lorenza and Luciana.

I like the lists, and I like 'ethnic' names too. I like Amalia, Aurelia, Emilia, Letizia, Luciana and Oriana. Niccola looks a little strange with the extra c, unless it's pronounced differently to Nicola, but it's still okay. I think with names like Violetta and Viviana, I'm more partial to Violet and Vivian.

I didn't know Gemma was Italian, though. I know a Gemma, and she's actually French.

I like:
Viviana
Violetta
Oriana
Luciana
Lia
Aurelia
Alessia

And I also like the name Ilaria... I like names ending in "ia" it seems...

I don't like any of them.

Is Amica a name? It's the word for female friend.

I like Alamia, Antonietta, Aurelia, Chiarra, Emilia, and Niccola, though I'm a fan of 'eh' endings.

I work at a school with predominantly Italian kids,

Tiziana
Alessandra
Cristina
Sofia

Amica is NOT an italian name. It's an italian word, it means "friend".
Would you call your daughter Friend? :P

Oh and Niccola isn't either.
Nicola, Nicolò and Niccolò are male names and Nicoletta is female.

Chiara, with one 'r'.

Giulia, not Guilia (typo, I believe)
Zola is not a name, and same for Venezia :P
no one here is that patriottic!

Venezia would just be weird to me considering it's the Italian name for Venice!

I love Nicola even though I think its more of an English thing to name a girl that, but my favorite Italian name is Bianca :)

I love, love Elettra, which is strange, since it doesn't fit my usual naming style at all. The only thing I don't like about it is that it reminds me of electricity and Carmen Electra (or Elektra...whatever).

From your list, I like Amalia, Aurelia, Emilia, Gemma, Giulia, Lia, Livia, Luciana, Niccola, Violetta, and Zola. I also love Alessandra, Carina, Carlotta, Francesca, Giuliana, Isabella, Madonna, Maria, and Rosella.
