Usage notes

  • Use reputazione for general public opinion. For personal honor or moral standing, fama or onore may fit better depending on context.
  • Very common with avere: avere una buona/cattiva reputazione. Also farsi una reputazione means to build one over time.
  • Good name in English often translates as buona reputazione, not just nome. Avoid literal calques like buon nome in most contexts.
