Thoughts on Cecilia, Jemima or Willow for dd2?

We have a very short one syllable masculine sounding surname so I can afford to go with something “frilly” to balance it out!

Cecilia, absolutely love it!

I hate the song Cecilia so I don't like the name, sorry.
Jemima = Puddleduck
Willow is beautiful.

Willow

My husband has an aunt called Cecelia and has been Aunt CeeLee all her life. It's been in that family for three generations. My daughter has a friend called Cecily but everyone calls her Sissy.

Jemima: no, not for me.

I love Willow but it reminds me of that 80s movie of the same name.

Willow!

Jemima.

Cecilia! Would have loved to use it but we had boys and also we have a last name starting with S.

I like all three but order of preference is:

Cecelia
Willow
Jemima
