I heard it once before. It’s unique and short.

I chose the name Enzo because it came to me in a dream at 12 weeks pregnant. Had no idea the founder of Ferrari was named Enzo. Pretty cool I guess….
I like how elegant yet strong the name sounds. It’s can be both macho masculine yet artistic yet feminine.

We appreciate different, yet simply spelt names.

Enzo was a name of a character on a series my husband and I watched. We are a blended family, coincidentally our children’s names all come from the same tv series.

His full name is Lorenzo Cash. My husband’s best friend’s name was Loren (he had everyone call him Lorenzo 🙂 and he was a man unlike any other. We had a miscarriage in February of last year, then found out we were pregnant again in April. Loren lost his battle with cancer in March which is when we conceived baby Enzo so we decided to honor him (and also ensure our child’s awesomeness) by naming him after his uncle Loren 🙂 I’m a massive country music fan too so Cash was kind of a no brainer, and my husband really liked it!

I love the name Enzo and suggested it to my husband but he wasn’t so excited about it. One day, he watched a documentary about Enzo Ferrari and changed his mind, deciding that Enzo would be the perfect name for him.

I originally like the name Ezra (yes, off of Pretty Little Liars haha), but it wasn’t really connecting with this baby in my belly. My husband is Italian, so I decided to look up a list of boy Italian names. That’s where I came across the name, Enzo! When I asked my husband what he thought, I could tell he was picturing a little boy running around our house. He smiled, said “Enzo”, and I knew immediately that was going to be his name! When we told his grandmother, she told us that her husband, who has passed, wanted to name their second child Enzo if it was a boy, but they ended up having a girl. Neither my husband or I had heard this story before. It made us tear up and confirmed that Enzo was the perfect name. My husband had a hard time with his grandfather passing and I truly believe the name Enzo came to us for a reason!

I picked the name Enzo because it was different and I liked the meaning of it. It stands for Ruler of the House ans it’s Italian.
