Re: Lucinda
in reply to a message by Lily
I like Lucinda. It has a soft and antique-y sort of feel without being super frilly or having that "trying too hard" retro ugliness. It has the same feel to me as Evelyn, Constance, Eleanor, or Rosamund, for example. Like a pretty name you would have found not too far back on the family tree.
I don't care for Lucille. The -ille ending in general doesn't grab me.
Lucy/Lucie seems like it would be the default nickname more than Cindy. I like it. It's not one of my personal favorites but it's cute and would be a natural way to shorten Lucinda.
