Thoughts?

I like it Smile

funmummy48 · 02/09/2018 10:01

It's pretty.

Goostacean · 02/09/2018 10:49

Beautiful!

Margaurette · 02/09/2018 11:02

Love it!

I work with one (she's lovely, So it's a good association), but she's constantly having to tell people 'no, not Alicia'. Just flagging in case that would annoy you.

sleepismysuperpower · 02/09/2018 11:05

i love it. sounds very pretty

Icklepup · 02/09/2018 11:06

I love it

tova · 02/09/2018 12:26

Beautiful name if you have Italian heritage.

daisypond · 02/09/2018 13:41

Yes, I like it.

ladycarlotta · 02/09/2018 13:55

I used to work with a lovely Alessia. She was Italian. I hadn't come across her name before but it wasn't hard to learn.

TroubledLichen · 02/09/2018 14:32

Love it, I know one who is Italian-American and in her early 30s. She does often get Alicia or Alyssa and have to correct people though.

Rebecca36 · 02/09/2018 14:59

Sounds alright but why ask what you think, we can't tell.

seven201 · 02/09/2018 18:05

I like it. I don't know how to pronounce it though?

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 02/09/2018 18:41

Gorgeous.πŸ’•

Shadow1234 · 09/09/2018 02:03

Very pretty and feminine name - love it.

NameChangedNow · 09/09/2018 02:11

Sounds nothingy. Like it was just chosen because it sounded pretty.

mathanxiety · 09/09/2018 07:00

Agree with that^^.

Too frilly. Reminds me of the name Alyssa that was all the rage about 30 years ago and has sunk without trace.

n0ne · 09/09/2018 09:59

Agree with last 2 pps, it's missing something. Not solid enough for my taste.

Kizzybeau · 10/09/2018 01:51

My cousin is called β€˜Alicia’ pronounced β€˜A-liss-eeya’ and I have alwaya loved it, rolls off the toungue really well and sounds pretty yet sophisticated. As children I’d call her liss or lissy for short which I still do occasionally and think these are lovely NN for a little girl. Although it was occasionally mistaken for β€˜Alisha’ it wasn’t too much of an issue and was rare that anyone made the mistake more than once.

Do YOU like it? Haha. I rather do, but she's not my baby. πŸ‘ΆπŸΌπŸ’“πŸš«
