I don't like Felix as a nn for Felicity. There's always Flick though.

DittoI prefer Licy/Lissie or even Feli to Felix.

I personally think that Felix is too much of a stretch to be a nickname for Felicity. Few people would be able to see the association so I think it would cause more problems then not. Felix is also extremely masculine sounding name and as a nickname for Felicity I think it rather ruins Felicity's beautiful sound. If you're looking for a nn for Felicity why not try Flick or what about Flicka? Lissie / Lissy is always an option. I've also see Fliss used once, I believe Fliss is actress Felicity Jones' nn. Also off the top of my head I rather like Felly as a nn. WDYT?

It's a bit of a stretch, but I guess it could sort of work. Personally I don't really like masculine nns for girls such as Sam for Samantha or Alex for Alexandra, they create confusion.

I don't like it much... Firstly, because Felix is traditionally a boy's name (even though it happens to be my surname), but also because it seems to be a bit stretched.
