[Opinions] Re: Celia
in reply to a message by Idony
Using Celia to honor Alice would be a fabulous idea, imo. Not corny. :) I love both Celia and Cecilia, but I agree that "heaven" is a better meaning than "blind". :-/ I don't automatically think of 'cilia', and actually Celia lends to it less than Cecilia, at least spelling and sound-wise. Celia Eve and Celia Juliet are lovely, and even though I love Augusta, I'm not big on the double -a endings. Some suggestions:
Celia Isabel
Celia Marguerite
Celia Naomi
Celia Rosemary
Celia Marisol
Celia Bernadette
Celia Neves (even though I'm not positive on prn.)
Celia Ester
Celia Evelyn - maybe flows a bit better than Eve?
Celia Raquel
Celia Ines - gorgeous! (INÊS)
Celia Iris - gorgeous! (ÍRIS)

Thanks for you thoughts and the combos.I really like:
Celia Marguerite
Celia Rosemary- I usually like other Ros- names better, but this is nice.
Celia Marisol
Celia Ester- I have an great aunt Ester.
Celia Evelyn - maybe flows a bit better than Eve? Agreed, and Evelyn was my great grandma Eva's "English name". She has two sets of papers, one saying Eva Rosa and the other Evelyn Rose.
Celia Ines (INÊS)- I agree this is gorgeous.
Celia Iris (ÍRIS)- I didn't realise Iris was used by Portuguese speakers. This has really pleased me!
