Cecilia?

I've loved the name Cecilia ever since reading Atonement! I also love that she is the patron saint of music. DH thinks it's too repetitive on the 's' sound, which I suppose I can see. What do you think? I also like Cece and Celie/Celia as nicknames.
Someone just informed me that baby's due date is Saint Cecilia's day! Seems like fate? Do you like this name?

Ah you got there before me!

In all seriousness it's a nice name, but yes, the song.

DD's name, Cecie for short. Obviously I love it and it moves well within countries IYSWIM.

For example I don't live in the UK.

Definitely fate. And not very common, yet not unheard of!

Yes, love it.
So many nice shortenings as well - Ceci, Cece, Cissy etc

Love it. Considered it for dd2. I would use Cece as a nickname.
