“Antonella is an Italian feminine given name, a diminutive of Antonia — the feminine form of Antonius (Anthony), an ancient Roman family name of uncertain, possibly Etruscan, origin. The -ella diminutive suffix is characteristically Italian, giving the name a gentle, affectionate quality. It is predominantly used in southern and central Italy, where Antonia and its diminutives have been popular for centuries.”
Giuliana

Saint Julian gave the name Christian prestige throughout Italy. Giuliana is the feminine counterpart of Giuliano and has been used in Italy since the medieval period.”
Angela
“Angela is a feminine given name derived from the Latin angelus, from the Greek angelos meaning "messenger" or "angel".

The name was carried by the royal House of Savoy — the dynasty that unified Italy — through numerous princes and kings named Amedeo/Emanuele. It is inseparable in cultural memory from Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, though in Italy the name is distinctly Savoyard and Piedmontese.”

The mythological Rhea Silvia was the mother of Romulus and Remus, the legendary founders of Rome. The name also appears in Shakespeare's The Two Gentlemen of Verona ("Who is Silvia?
