my ex-step sister is named Angelica, but everyone calls her Jelly
I think it's cute =]

I like it, but wouldn't use it. I'd like to meet a little Angelica though, I think it would be nice to see/hear it used on a child these days.

Rugrats! No way!

It's cute, but not my style.

I love Angelica. It's so pretty and girly. You know it's the name of Penélope Cruz's character in the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean movie?

That Rugrats cartoon totally ruined it, if it ever were to have a chance with me in the first place. Despite also having the Angelica Houston association, I just can't get past the bratty, prissy little girl image.

I've always liked it, but it reminds me sooo much of the little cartoon character on Rugrats!

I've always loved Angelica. To me it is musical and so, so elegant. Angelique is too harsh for my ears, whereas Angelica is smooth and graceful. Angelica Sophie is my current stock combo, but I'm not happy with it yet.

I hate that a cartoon character has sullied it for a whole generation. *sigh* Why don't they use trendoyd names for bad / annoying characters?

Due to Rugrats, I've always considered it kind of prissy and the opposite of angelic.

I love it! I think it's very beautiful.

It's a bit sugary, but I think it's a nice name. It's my preferred 'Angel-' name.

It's a lovely name, I'd consider using it.

I like it a lot

I think Angelica gets a bad rap as a spoiled little princess name, but I think it has a dark earthiness to it (care of Anjelica Huston and angelica the herb). I really enjoy it. I'm just not a huge fan of Angie as a nickname, so I often overlook it. But I think it could be a stellar middle name.
