Lucia
So I was looking at the new popularity list and I saw Lucia is the #1 names for girls in Spain right now. What do you guys think of Lucia? How do you pronounce it? What would you pair it with?

It think it’s pretty. I prefer the “Loo-see-uh” pronunciation.

Too many different ways to pronounce this name. Lu SEE uh. Lu CHEE uh or LU sha. I’d just go with Lucy.

I seem to change my mind regularly whether I prefer Lucia or Lucy, but I definitely like both anyway. My favourite pronunciation is loo-SEE-ah, though I also like loo-CHEE-ah. LOO-shuh isn't particularly appealing imo. I also really like the idea of Lucia as a nickname for something more elaborate like Lucilla or Lucinda. I think this name ages very well.
Lucia Klara, Lucia Helena, Lucia Euphemia, Lucia Rosalie/Rosalia, Lucia Penelope, Lucia Jane, Elodie Lucia, Anna Lucia, Ophelia Lucia, Elisabeth Lucia.

I love this name, my 3 year old niece has it. My family calls her Lucy, but when we do call her Lucia it’s pronounced loo-SEE-a
