[Opinions] Re: Cecily & Cecilia
in reply to a message by Bex
I think the prettiest form is actually the French, Cecile, but I would say I like both Cecilia and Cecily. And Cecil, for that matter.
Cecil for a boy is delightful to me.
Anyway, your questions...
1. I can't choose between. With my last name, Cecilia sounds better.
2. No more than Katherine, Mary, or Bernadette do. Cecily sounds less Catholic.
3. I think that's a bit of a stretch. Just use Cecily if you can't bring yourself to say Cecilia.
4. Cece is cute.
