Any ideas? It's not that I don't like Gabriella...it's just that it's the only thing that comes to mind.

I've always liked "Grace" a lot, but I never thought of it as a Jewish name.
What do all of you think of it?

Gracia/Grazia is ultra Jewish. Grace I don't think?

OP.
Thanks everyone.
Are "Gracia" and "Gianna" really Jewish names?? I like them, they just sound really Italian...

People would say Guta and Golda sound really German. Smile

Gianna isn't common at all as Jewish name as far as I know, but certainly Gracia/Grazia.

Please don't name any child Gleeda - it means ice cream in Hebrew.

Grace is the direct English translation of Chana/Chen (and no, that's not my real name)

Glilia is cute, in Hebrew.
I've heard of Galila.


Gilda, Gracia, Gloria... are all good Sefardi names. Gabriella is so, so common among Italkim, for centuries.

OP, only Hebrew or all Jewish languages or all languages?

All the Giannas that I know in the US are Italian.

It's a pretty popular name these days.

Jews borrowed many names from the locals over millenia.

According to my research in medieval names, Giovanna was actually quite popular among Italian Jewry during the Renaissance.
