[Opinions] Cecilia, Cecile and Celia
Thoughts, feelings and general impressions on the three? I like Celia and it feels less "heavy" than Cecilia at the moment. Cecilia still feels a little too middle aged for now imo but I'm calling it now that I predict it being top 20 material within the next couple decades. Cecile is my favorite of these though ik it too is a little aged, I think it's cute & unexpected middle name material.
Please rate my "Names I would use" list if you have a spare moment, feel free to rate other lists too if you want but ik there's a lot, thank you :) https://www.behindthename.com/pnl/223226/138473

I dislike all of them. I used to really like Cecily but that has faded as well.
I dislike the meaning of Cecily, Cécile and Cecilia. I love the meaning of Celia. So I guess I'd rather use Celia but I don't like the sound very much.
Cecily is cute but not my favorite. Cecilia is okay as long as it is spelled like this (I dislike Cecelia). Cécile actually sounds nice. It's very 70s dated in France but not bad at all.
A bit of a dilemma because I much prefer the meaning of Celia but the sound of Cécile.
I guess:
1 Celia
2 Cécile, Cecily
3 Cecilia

I love Cecilia (or Cecelia) However, I haaaaaate Cece as a nickname... and I feel like it's kind of inevitable. (I know, I had a Cecelia at a daycare I worked at and I found even myself saying "I'm getting Cece's bottle" or the like) Because of this, Celia is slightly higher in my estimation. Cecile, I don't like quite as much as either. It's ok tho
I like both Celia and Cecilia about equally. The beauty of these two is that Celia could so easily be a nickname for Cecilia. Says the person who doesn't usually like nicknames. But there are exceptions to every rule. And this way you don't have to choose between them. Cecile is my least favorite, though it's fine too.
