I like the sound of Cecily. I don't think it will ever become very popular, but I would be surprised if it didn't enter the top 1000 in the near future.
What comes to mind when I hear the name Cecily:
1. Cecily King from the TV show
Road to Avonlea (based on books by L. M. Montgomery)
2. Cecily Cardew from
The Importance of Being Earnest3. Various medieval people, such as Cecily Neville
I would be very happy to meet a Cecily of any age. I've never met anyone with that name. I would expect the parents of a young Cecily to be interested in history and/or literature.
ETA: Cecily Jane Elise is lovely. I don't always like Elise, but I like it here.
