In this Spanish Medium Review quiz you will learn how to say given names in Spanish. Back in the Spanish Easy Review quiz series you learned several different names and how they were spoken. Those names included Alejandro (Alexander), Amanda (Amanda), Ana/Anna (Ann, Anne or Anna), Cristina (Christine), Davíd (David), Eduardo (Edward), Emilia (Emily), Guillermo (William), Jorge (George), José (Joseph), Juan (John), María (Mary and Marie), Pedro (Peter), Roberto (Robert), Sara (Sarah), Esteban (Stephen) and Tomás (Thomas). However, there are many, many more names that can be added to your Spanish names list. It is important to note here that not every English given name has a Spanish equivalent. When this happens, a person’s name will remain the same in both languages although the pronunciation will often be slightly different.
