Middle name for Cecily....

I think we have decided on Cecily for dd4... I really like the nickname Cece (is this how you would spell the nn...or Ceecee/Cee cee??)

Do you think Cecily Florence sounds good? Or Cecily Jane, Cecily Eliza?

If we have a dd2 she will probably be a Cecily (great choice Grin)

Cecily Blythe, Cecily May, Cecily Anne are in my head as possible mns (the latter two for family reasons but I also think they go well)

Of yours I prefer Cecily Jane and Cecily Eliza to Cecily Florence

How about Cecily Elise or Cecily Alice?

It depends on your surname. If your surname is one syllable, then I suggest a 2 syllable middle name. If your surname is 2 or more syllables then I would go for a 1 syllable middle name.

Eg. Cecily Anne Postlethwaite

Or

Cecily Florence Smith

Cecily Jane flows beautifully.

My Cecily's middle name is Elizabeth, which I think flows well :) If not, she was going to be Cecily Frances, which is also cute! You could consider:
Cecily Rose
Cecily Marie
Cecily May
Cecily Olivia
Cecily Summer
Cecily Violet

I call mine Cece as a nickname sometimes. I think it's cute!
Good luck xx

I would steer clear of names starting with E, as Cecily Eliza doesn't roll together very well with the 2 e-sounds together.

Cecily Jane sounds lovely. Cecily is nice but I'm not sure if there are a few too many soft 'ce' sounds in there!

Cecile Florence I meant, when I said about the 'ce' sounds!
