Alicia or Alice?

[GraceMF]

We love them both, with the nickname 'Lissie' but can't decide on which! Like that Alicia is a bit less common than Alice but same sounds?

[SadlyACupOfTeaDoesNotSolveEverything]

Alice is my preference.

[Topseyt123]

I like both too. I'd probably plump for Alicia, but could be persuaded to Alice too.

[Beamur]

Alice

[Holly60]

Alicia for me

[TomatoSandwiches]

Alice, always Alice.

[fartfacenotfatface]

Bear in mind that Alicia can be pronounced Al-ee-sh-ya as well as A-liss-ee-a

[KirstenBlest]

Alice. Alicia will get called Aleesha

[JanesBlond]

Alice. I don’t like Alicia pronounced aleesha.

[cherryassam]

I prefer Alice.

The Lissy I know is a Felicity

[GoodVibesHere]

I prefer Alice, it's classic and pretty.

If I saw Alisia written down I would probably pronounce it more like 'Ahleeshiya'.

[swedishgirl]

Definitely Alice.

[ciakace]

Alicia, can use Alice as a nn

[LadySlipper]

Alice

[Hawkins0009]

Alicia, from the good wife show

[Needmorelego]

I prefer Alice but why the 'nickname" Lissie? It's pretty much a completely different name as it doesn't really seem obvious it comes from Alice.
I would think a Lissie would be short for Melissa.

[MrsBudd]

How about Elissa as an alternative option?

[Lemonademoney]

beautiful, also like Alyssa? Or even Elissa?

[OuiLaLa]

Alice, it’s so beautiful I kind of wish I had called dd that. Also it’s not so common right now.

Lissie is definitely short for Melissa though!

[PrimrosesandPears]

I prefer Alicia but I think the alternative pronunciation and need to specify which she uses would be a bit frustrating.

[BicOrange]

She'll get Ali at school.

Just call her Lissie.

[shoopshoopdedoo]

Alice, definitely!

[adriftinadenofvipers]

Alice. All day long.

[Bigthingssmall]

Definitely Alice. Alicia will become Al. But Alice will remain Alice. And its nicer.

[DinnaeFashYersel]

Alice

[WorkCleanRepeat]

My Mum's name is Alicia. Most people call her Lisa because they can't pronounce it.
