    I've got a real-life rich sounding girl's first name and she even
    has an italian last name.  
    
    My daughter's sitter's daughter:  Ashley Anzalone (That's pronounced
                                                       an-za-LO-nee)
    
    - Kathryn

    My "cousin-in-law"'s daughter is named Victoria Royals.   I think
    it's a fabulous, rich-sounding name fit for a queen!

595.4My picksPFSVAX::LILLYThu Oct 11 1990 12:2812
    It seems to me that "rich" girls names are simple and sometimes unisex.
    How about....
    
    Alicia (a real life rich girl I met)
    Lindsay
    Shelby
    Caroline
    
    As for an Italian name, how about my mothers neighbor, Giovanina
    Massinople. Or her daughter Carmen. Hey this is fun!

595.5GREAT JOB EVERYONE!~!!BUSY::WMILLERThu Oct 11 1990 13:4623
    THOSE ARE ALL FANTASTIC!!!!!
    WHAT GREAT IDEAS FROM ALL OF YOU.
    JUST TO HELP SOME OF YOU OUT A LITTLE MORE. ONE GIRL IS RICH, MAYBE A
    SCOTTISH OR ENGLISH BACKGROUND, SHE IS NOT ITALIAN, SHE IA VERY
    FEMININE.
    
    THE OTHER GIRL IS MORE CITY LIKE, ITALIAN, (WHICH BY THE WAY THIS
    ITALIAN GIRLS FIRST NAME HAS TO BE ITALIAN BUT SOMETHING YOU CAN
    SHORTEN TO MAKE A KIND OF TOUGH SOUNDING NICKNAME. (EXAMPLE: SAMANTHA =
    SAM, HOWEVER IT IS NOT ITALIAN.
    
    THOSE ARE ALL GREAT IDEAS, COMBINED TOGETHER I AM SURE ME AND MY FRIEND
    WILL COME UP WITH SOMETHING GREAT!!!!! ;)
    
    ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS?
    
    THERE IS ALSO GOING TO PARENTS FOR BOTH OF THE GIRLS (WHO ARE NOT
    SISTERS BY THE WAY). AND THE ITALIAN (TOUGH)  GIRL IS GOING TO HAVE
    BROTHERS.
    
    ANY SUGGESTIONS ON NAMES WILL BE APPRECIATED, THANKS!

    This is my first time replying... but when you requested an Italian
    last name I couldn't resist suggesting mine....BARTOLAMEOLLI!!!!
    I married into that name, thank God my first name is short...Kris.
    
    This was fun.  Hope it helps.  Also I will adding my own note hopefully
    today for suggestions on babynames, with a last name like that my
    husband and I can use all the help we can get.  Any
    help would be welcomed.
