The name is Arminia..I can say this in confidence since my name is actually Erminia and I have often had people mis spell it in the past....

Oh yea..and I like the meaning, too. I know its Greek...perhaps a derivative of Hermes.

Very Happy

My personal opinion is that the name is ANNINA (little Anne). I see only one "I" and I read a double "NN" rather than an "RN" as in Arminia, the R in the word Caro is rounded...

The phrase is "to my dear nephew, aunt Annina"

Oooo..I have to go back and look now. You are, after all much more knowledgeable when it comes to reading Italian writing. kiss

Mikey, do you have an Aunt Annina?

That name for me is AMINA, my mom knows a lady who has that name

AMINA

Deriva probabilmente dall'arabo Aminah, "la fedele", oppure rappresenta un diminutivo del nome germanico Aimo, composto dalla radice ami-, "perseverante".
L'onomastico può essere festeggiato il primo novembre essendo un nome adespota, cioè senza santo patrono.

I hope it helps
