nickname for Priscilla
I meant to post this a couple weeks ago but I forgot. Anywho... I was reviewing an account at my work and ended up calling the client back and her name was Prisiclla. She was in her 60's. Super sweet but her nickname made me smile. "Pixie" She laughed when she told me but it really seemed to suit her lol

I love Priscilla, it's my sister's name!We always called her Prissy (I was always called Sissy-so it was Prissy and Sissy), though she called Silly a lot too. Now that she is older, she either goes by her full first name, or she goes by Prisca (Priss-kuh). Pixie is cute, I'll have to tell her that one!

Oh, how neat! I really like Priscilla but the nns have always kind of put me off of it. I think Pixie is cute, though. :D

I like the nickname Cil (sill) for an older woman
and for a little kid isn't Cilly cute? Pronounced like Silly of course.

Pixie is adorable, but I can only picture it on a baby/young child or a much older lady.A friend of mine has a daughter named Priscilla. They call her Scilla sometimes. I would probably just use Priscilla if I chose that name for my daughter.

That is a cute nn! It's definitely better than Prissy or Priss, which would be a reason I wouldn't name my child Priscilla. Presley has actually overtaken it, but even that's sounding dated & over-trendy now. I happen to like the concunction of Precille. It sounds fresh, can't be called Prissy, and isn't reminiscent of Elvis. Like it?
