I can't think of this name as delicate at all, though I suppose you could call it firm. I hate it, actually. I can't stand the Jude sound. Nickname Judy is just as bad.

That is completely beautiful. Love it.

Judith is almost never used in my area(French-speaking), due to the "th" sound being difficult for French speakers. It's a name I love, though.

My ggm was Judith Jane, which I think is as cute a combo as any. Of yours I like Judith Cecily the best.
However, I can take or leave Judith as a fn - Judy is OK but I hate Jude.
