[Opinions] WDYTO Cecilia?

Cecilia and Celia
are both beautiful names.
Cecilia is the only correct spelling to me. Cecilia is a classic and international name, used in Sweden but not too popular.
Celia is not as well known in Sweden but I like it b/c of the Shakespeare association.

I ought to like it. I love Celia, Cordelia and Ophelia. But for some reason Cecilia's always sounded a bit wrong to me. Perhaps it's that the first two syllables are almost the same - "seh-see" - then the 3rd one rhymes with the 2nd. It's not free-flowing enough. Sorry if I make no sense ... That's the only way I can describe it!

It's terrific
though I admit I kinda like Cecelia, because the American pronunciation (at least where I am) makes the second syllable a long E, sehSEELya, so that spelling just looks better to me. I know some people don't care for this name just because of the blindness thing, but I think that's silly. I also really love Claudia, even more in fact than Cecilia; but some people object to Claudia because it means "lame." I think Cecilia and Claudia would make a great sibset or even twin set. Blind and lame together!
