Lucelia

[Lucaslovesfelicity]

Hi all

I have just gone 8 weeks pregnant and have started looking through the odd baby name book. I have come across the name Lucelia, which I think I like but not sure if it is just too over fussy. What do people thing? Is it a yay or a nay?

Thanks x


Other names we are considering are Tabitha and Juliet.
We have got two LO already called James and Isabel x

Think even ;-) x

It's pretty, but you might find people struggle with pronunciation (or maybe that's just me!).

I love Lucia but this seems a bit much.

[shakemysilliesout]

Way too fussy for me. It would need spelling out all the time

[bridgetsmummy]

What about Lucina?

[florascotia]

It's Portuguese, isn't it? And it's usually spelled with an acute accent on the 'e'. In which case the usual pronounciation would be Loo-SAY-lyah.

I think that it's rather pretty, but, as others have already said, you might find people have problems with saying it.

Lucilla is easier to pronounce.

(I really like Juliet)

[Belazu84]

Much prefer Lucia, Lucy or Celia!

[Lucaslovesfelicity]

Yes, I agree that the pronunciation will probably be an issue. Thanks for all your comments

I don't like the spelling, i suggest Lucille..
Juliet is a nice name too.

I'm not keen on Lucelia, tbh, but I adore Juliet, it's beautiful.

[maggiethemagpie]

prefer Luella if you want a variation on Lucy.

[Applefallingfromthetree2]

Why not just go for Celia, very pretty and classic and not so fussy?

[Sophronia]

I like Tabitha with James and Isabel.

[Sinkingfeeling]

Hmm, sounds like a blend of Lucia and Celia to me - prefer both of those names to Lucelia.

Maggie, Luella is very poor trashy South American. Nasty.
