Every name, and this is true bove all the most unusual ones, is a story in a nutshell.
A name tells something about a place, a tradition (or the lack of tradition, which could be a tradition per se, to be honest), a culture, a language, special circumstances, a community, the Zeitgeist.
After the 20 ones I posted for you yesterday, here can you find 10 further examples of unusual, poetic, old-fashioned and rare Italian first names for men:
1. Cristofaro
2. Eufemio
3. Ezio
4. Feliciano
5. Lantaro
[The Teresio Olivelli municipal park,
formerly known as Giardino Meier (Tremezzo, Como),
dedicated to the Italian Resistance movement member
Teresio Olivelli, 1916-1945]
6. Maggiorino
7. Neviano
8. Teodoro
9. Teresio
10. Valter (instead of the most common "Walter")
