What do you think of this girls name?? Or can you suggest an alternative?

[WellErrr]

Cassia.

Shortened to Cassie probably.

Or can you suggest anything else?
Englishy/fairly traditional but not popular or boring.

Prefer flower names.

Thank you!

[CoYoAddict]

Wouldn't that be Cassiope or Cassiopia?

[CoYoAddict]

Just not sure if there is a connection although they are similar

[BigGreenOlives]

All the baby name sites seem to say Greek - of course who knows what their sources are. The only Cassias I've come across have been very upper middle class.

[Socksandslippers]

My daughter is called Cassia (she's 2 years old). I think it's very pretty but it does bug me when people pronounce it wrong!

[ChessieFL]

How is it pronounced? Cass-ee-a or Cass-eye-a?

[CoYoAddict]

I would say CASS-ee-a

wouldn't occur to me to pronounce it any other way

[CordeliaFrost]

I pronounce it CA-sha, as it's the feminine of Cassius, which is traditionally pronounced CASH-us.

Plus the only Cassia I know pronounces it this way.

[CordeliaFrost]

Oh and lovely name OP.

[HouseOfBiscuits]

Cassia is a lovely name.

I'd pronounce it as CASS-ee-a in the UK.

I think Cash-a and Cash-us are American pronunciations.

[CoYoAddict]

Yes I guess like Alicia we would Al-is-eya whereas Americans tend to say Aleesha

[dailymaillazyjournos]

Was also going to suggest Kezia but was beaten to it.
Rosa
Rosalia
Rosanna
Susannah/Suzanna
Florence

[Socksandslippers]

I pronounce it Cass-ee-a

[Porcupinetree]

I think Cassia is nice. Cassie sounds like a dog's name.

[Namelessbabe]

I know a Cassia - pretty name.
I like Rosa and Rose too.
What about Blossom too?

[BendydickCuminsnatch]

Blossom always makes me think of this little Blossom we were behind while crazy golfing once... She was really naughty and her parents going 'Blossom, Blossom darling, Blossom don't do that please' in really soft ineffective voices was hilarious Also it reminds me of the word 'bosom'.

[WellErrr]

Blossom makes me think of a big dairy cow

But I'm glad people like Cassia

[Elllicam]

I love it, it's on my list too :) (had been before :) )

[CPtart]

It sounds like a Greek holiday resort.
Cassandra is much nicer.
