[Opinions] Re: Cecily?
I like it, but only when it's pronounced CISS-i-lee. I stopped loving it as much when I found out that Americans say CESS-i-lee, which sounds so ugly to me. I also dislike the meaning. It is very pretty-looking though, let me make that clear, haha.

Aren't you confusing Cicely with Cecily? AFAIK Cecily is pronounced the same in all English-speaking countries.

No, I'm not. I can't speak for all of Canada, but at least in my region, it is pronounced CISS, not CESS. Same goes for Cecilia. We say CISS-seel-lee-ah. I asked family and friends, and we all pronounce Cicely and Cecily the same way.
