I adore Gemma! It's on my PNL (and this is coming from an Emma-hater).

---

Some of my favorite Gemma combos are:
Gemma Francesa (probably one of my all-time favorite combos)
Gemma Isadora
Gemma Emmanuelle
Gemma Valentine (val-un-TEEN)
Gemma Lucia (loo-SEE-uh)
Gemma Octavia
Gemma Valencia
Gemma Raffaella
Gemma Mercedes
Gemma Louisa

As for Lucia, I love it when pronounced loo-SEE-uh. The LOO-sha reminds me too much of the British slang word for bathroom :/ It's funny though because I love Louisa and Louis.

nt.

When my mum was pregnant with my sister she couldn't think of a girl's name she liked, so I suggested Gemma and she used it. Now I kinda regret it 'cos I'd like to use it myself! It's a lovely name.

I've always loved the name Gemma. I too love the sound and meaning. Gemma Rose was always on my list, although it's quite predictable. I also love Gemma Ruby, Gemma Kate, Gemma Lily, Gemma Lucy, Gemma Sophie, Gemma Celeste, Gemma Violet, Gemma Phoebe and Gemma Rachel.

Lucia is nms.

I've always had an affinity for Gemma, but much in the way I like Felicity and Phillippa (nn Pippa). I don't think I'd ever use it, but I do like it in theory. It's cute, but not TOO cutsey, IMO.

I like Gemma about 100 times more than Emma. I'm not sure of middle names. I love Lucia, but LOO-sha is my least favorite pronunciation of the name. The combos are nice.

Interesting. I KNOW I made a reply to this. But where is it? ...

I like the name Lucia and both combos, and I like the name Gemma, but neither combo, although I agree it needs a sturdy name, but Winifred sounds clunky and I'm just not keen on Lucinda. Perhaps Gemma Corinne? Gemma Tamsin?

I like Gemma. I think the 'G' saves it from total trendiness and the association with the über-popular Emma.

---

I agree that it doesn't need a longer middle name.

Gemma Laurentine
Gemma Fiorella

Gemma Ophelia
Gemma Seraphina

I love Lucia. I prefer the pronunciation 'loo-SEE-ah', but it's really a lovely name no matter how it's pronounced.

---

Lucia Evangeline is perfect, while Pandora is a little to eccentric and flighty for the elegant and refined Lucia.

I love it. Gemma is one of my absolute favorites. I like Gemma Winifred quite a bit.

Gemma Cecile
Gemma Lorraine
Gemma Iris
Gemma Charlotte
Gemma Daphne
Gemma Antonia
Gemma Silvia

I don't care for Lucia at all, so I never enjoy any Lucia combos.

I like Gemma. Here are some combos:

---

Gemma Adriana
Gemma Antonia
Gemma Naomi
Gemma Natalia
Gemma Bethany
Gemma Penelope

I only like Lucia pr. 'Loo-tzee-ah'.
