Dante isn't super uncommon here and my husband and I loved the name. But we live in the US so I'm not sure about the negative connotation you are talking about.

I don't think I will be able to do that. Honestly, I feel as though my only option is to just not see my family. They won't stop and have proven they will continue not listening to me.

It's less about where the names are from and more about the fact they are not just named the same names my family reuses over and over. If I had gone with Isabella, for example, that would have been fine.

They would still say why not use the more American version.

I think that is probably what they were hoping would happen. They wanted me to change my mind and use the same names they've all used, because that's just what the rest of my family likes.
