Cecilia or Cecily?

[JudithTaverner]

We can't decide! On the one hand we like Cecilia because it's more formal/traditional and a stronger female name. But the Simon and Garfunkel song is a bit irritating.

But Cecily is so pretty. But I wonder whether it's not a strong enough name and that it doesn't pass the high court judge test. (although I'm sure she is pretty unlikely to end up being a high court judge anyway).

What do you think?

Oh and I know the "blind" meaning and don't mind it.

Thanks everyone!

I forgot about that Cecilia AKMD . i did have Frederica and Hero on my shortlist too, but they got booted by H for being too outrageous. Still undecided though on which is nicest.

oh and still thinking about whether Cecily can be a nn for Cecilia
