"Andrea"
"Andrea" is masculine in Italian. In English the equivalent would be "Andrew"

Or rather, almost always.
I have a female Italian friend named Andrea - but everyone assumes she is a man when it's written down. She even got sent a military conscription notice by mistake!!

sometimes it is feminine
"Andrea" was a masculine name, but in the last generations (since 20 years ago more or less), some "Andrea" are female (maybe 3/4%). There was an italian movie, in the 70's, "la chiameremo Andrea", "we'll call her Andrea". Before, Andrea was just for men. Of course, in Italy live some "Andrea" female, daughters of german or anglo-saxon people in general

"Lo chiameremo Andrea"
Scusa Domenico, ma il titolo del film era "LO chiameremo Andrea". Film di Vittorio De Sica, con Mariangela Melato. Nessun italiano chiamerebbe la propria figlia "Andrea", perché sarebbe ridicolo. Si ricorrerebbe al femminile di Andrea, appunto Andreina, come hanno già detto in molti.

mi dispiace per la tua amica. Colpa dei genitori che hanno deciso di dare un nome maschile (chissà perché) a una femmina
