"Come si chiama la tua fidanzata futura?"

Translation: What is the name of your future girlfriend?

[ceceg]

Hard to answer until he's met her, sometime in the future :)

[Criculann]

It could be someone whom he is planning to ask out

[italiaoo]

Hey folks, do you think it makes more sense with "fiancee"?

[gordon_gregory]

Yup!

[italiaoo]

Thank you!

[Rompip]

This is really the only answer that makes proper sense (imo)

[IARose]

Absolutely and it is accepted but only if you write it with an accent as in French

[Flysalot]

I'm learning Italian, not English! I failed this one not knowing that we change the ending of fiance when its female!

[siebolt]

Laying the cards?

[Stronzia]

why "what is your future girlfriend's name" is wrong?
maybe too complicated?
"What's your name?" I thought the structure is "What is someone's name?"
Help me!

The first one you mentioned is accepted as of July 2014.

[Stronzia]

thank you

[le.dog]

Maybe she doesn't know she is dating him yet

[ejordan324]

'How does one name your future girlfriend?' Help!

[formaggiamente]

That would be "how does one call", which is how Italians talk about (already given) names.

[Catia9]

I very bravely said, "What does your future girlfriend call herself?" - which I thought DL would mark wrong and they did : ( However, if this WAS what one really wanted to say, wouldn't this be the way to say it?

[Stronzia]

It's a little odd, but in Italian "What does your future girlfriend call herself" would be "come la tua futura fidanzata chiama se stessa?"

[Catia9]

Thanks.

[saves_the_day]

Make sure you don't forget the accent on "fiancée" or it will count it wrong like it did for me...

[Catia9]

I said, 'fiancee to be' - which sounds more natural to me than 'future fiancee' - but got it wrong!

The sentence makes perfect sense. Picture a mother that just saw her son talking to a girl and later asking him, jokingly "what is the name of your future girlfriend?"
