Lucia, Diana, or Grace

[alyxlndn]

We have finally narrowed down the list to our top three:
Lucia
Diana
Grace

The name should fit with the ds' Ezra and Sasha and the last name is one syllable and starts with an F.
We really only have one big concern: my family is Italian and would pronounce Lucia with a ch sound while we would to be able to call her Luci so it would be pronounced Loo-see-ah.

Middle name options (all family names) seem to fit with all of the options, although obviously some better than others (Mirielle, Aurelia, Elaine, Elsa, Anais)

I said they don't remember her.

And in my experience many young people are either unaware of her, or uninterested. Yes, there have been many media articles and features over the years, but if you're not interested you don't read them.

Good point, Mitzy. How many people have objected to Grace on the grounds that the name is too much associated with Princess Grace?

Lucia

Lucia gets my vote. I wouldn't worry about pronunciation as many people here will go with your choice, and your daughter may enjoy having a name that is different in another language.

I don't see anyone objecting to the name Diana. What people do think of with that name is princess Diana . Just like when you say the name Elvis it will always evoke memories of Elvis Presley and he died a long time ago.

I don't know one single person named Diana. I know lots of Dianes as that was very popular when I was at school.

I know a few women called Diana, and there have been lots of other Dianas throughout history. Doesn't really compare with a name like Elvis.

I'm actually quite liking Elvis now!

Revisiting. Depending on people's pronunciations of Lucia, in this case as Loo-sha, it may end up being fairly close to Sasha. Still am torn between Grace and Diana, but I imagine you are too!

Grace

Only like diana.
