We don't actually know if they were born in Vigrid, merely that they were raised there. Vigrid itself doesn't appear to be in or near Italy. The map at the beginning zooms in on this spot specifically, pointed to in the picture. As you can see it's well within the boarders of France.

What little we know of Jeanne's past heavily implies that she is Joan of Arc, which means she's likely to be french, and that makes sense. The heir to the Umbra Throne being born in Vigrid isn't far-fetched.

Bayonetta and Rosa however both have Spanish names. Spain is directly west of France. Though possible, it's unlikely that they were born in France, but since we're not told either way where either of them hails from or were born, we can assume that they can be one or the other.

What I'm wondering now is where did this notion that Vigrid was located in Italy come from?
