I like it, it's the name of Tolkien's daughter, but he called her Prisca. As nicknames go, I would call her Priscilla unless like Cilla or Prisca were stated to be her nicknames. I don't think it's dated, I just think too many parents are afraid of the Prissy nickname.

I dont Priscilla is dated. I think its lovely

I love Priscilla!

It's seems so delicate and queenly for some reason. I think it would be great with the nn Prilla or even better with the nn Pria. I would definitely use Pria :0)

I think Priscilla is lovely. I'd think to call her Cilla instead of Prissy.

I like Priscilla, but I can't stand the nick name Prissy. If you can get away with not using a nick name, I wouldn't. But, I do think most people would want to call her Prissy.

Like Priscilla, especially nn Cilla. I love Cilla though.

I think it's fine.

I really love Priscilla- I think it is elegant and spunky all rolled into one. I would LOVE to meet a little Priscilla!!!

I think of Priscilla Queen of The Desert 1st, then I think of Presley & Cilla Black! Just not that keen

I will admit that I like Priscilla. I don't think of Priscilla Presley at all.

I've heard many times on many boards that the name Priscilla is cruel, and people would either call her Prissy or Silly. But when I went to high school I was very surprised to find that there was a girl in my class named Priscilla! No one ever called her Prissy or Silly, or made fun of her name in any way. She went by her full name and that's what everyone called her.

Now, I don't know how elementary school was for her, but by high school she liked that her name was different and she didn't get any grief over it.
