LUCY!?

I rarely hear this name which surprises me because it's such a clean, beautiful and utterly timeless girls name!! Why don't more people use it?

We want a really pretty but classic name and Lucy/Lucie is at the top of my list (Annabelle, Elena and Anna close runners up)

What do you think of Lucy?

I really like it too. My sister and step-mother are both called Lucy, and my deceased maternal grandmother was also Lucy. I don't know if any children called Lucy though.

I like Lucy. It’s pretty and timeless. My dd is expecting a little girl within the next couple of weeks. I have suggested Lucy, Emily and Freya.

@brassica I was thinking just this! It's gorgeous, classic, not too unusual and still quite uncommon.

It’s my name and I couldn’t agree more - surprises me how few Lucys I come across! I love it.
