Bianca, the livelier Italian and Shakespearean version of Blanche, has been chosen by many American parents since the 1990s, just as Blanca is a favorite in the Spanish-speaking community.

Miss Bianca was an elegant mouse (voiced by Eva Gabor) in Disney's 1977 The Rescuer, and Bianca features as a character in two Shakespeare plays.

Bianca was brought to prominence here by the first Mrs. Mick Jagger. She entered the US popularity ranks in 1973, reaching a high of Number 84 in 1990. Bianca was chosen for her daughter by actress Tia Carrere.
