I like cecilia the best

jo25 · 18/04/2008 07:59

I like Cecilia and Letizia.

MaryAnnSingleton · 18/04/2008 07:59

cecilia is nicest

oliviaelanasmum · 18/04/2008 08:00

I like Seraphina, we nearly used it for dd2.

schneebly · 18/04/2008 08:01

I like Cecilia and Hannah best

Buda · 18/04/2008 08:01

Another vote for Cecilia. Not keen on Litizia at all but I worked with a girl called Litia a few years ago - she was Fijian.

saadia · 18/04/2008 08:04

I like Hannah the best, and like all the others except Seraphina.

kayzisexpecting · 18/04/2008 08:07

I only like Cecilia and Felicia none of the others.

MaryAnnSingleton · 18/04/2008 08:07

Felicity is nicer than Felicia...Seraphina makes me thin of a giant angel

EffiePerine · 18/04/2008 08:12

Cecilia and Hannah are nice

I would use the spelling Letitia (or Lettice if you're feeling poncy)

EffiePerine · 18/04/2008 08:14

Actually, I prefer Cicely to Cecilia...

AbbeyA · 18/04/2008 08:20

I like Hannah, prefer Letizia if it is spelt Letitia or Leticia, Felicity is better than Felicia and Seraphina makes me think of a giant angel! Cecilia-OK.

mimimimi · 18/04/2008 08:20

hi,
was also thinking of spelling letizia letitia, but we are unsure because of the titi, could cause a problem in school?

why does nobody like seraphina - i think it's lovely...

I only really like Cecilia and Hannah.

Is Letizia a typo for Letitia?

CantSleepWontSleep · 18/04/2008 08:22

Ah, x post. Don't think that would be a problem.

ruty · 18/04/2008 08:23

I quite like Seraphina actually! She'll be called Seffy though, which is fine, but a bit too close to Absolutely Fabulous's Saffy.
I like Cecilia too.

EffiePerine · 18/04/2008 08:25

I like the meaning of Letitia as well - from Laetitia, joy happiness (Latin)

mollymawk · 18/04/2008 08:30

I like Cecilia (could never use it due to massive clash with our surname)
Letitia makes me think of Letitia Dean from EastEnders!
And Seraphina makes me think of a (grown-up) angel too.

duchesse · 18/04/2008 08:41

Wow! Three names on that list are my children's names or my sister's daughter's- one with a slight variation. Won't say which. Suffice to say that both families have a monosyllabic surname, and have given all our children three syllable first names.

MrsMattie · 18/04/2008 09:04

Cecilia & Serpahina are nice. Not keen on the rest.

MrsBadger · 18/04/2008 09:34

agree Letitia or Leticia would be nicer - if you're worried about the 'titi' don't use it at all rather than misspelling it.

And would you pronounce Felicia Fel-ISS-ee-a or Fel-EE-sha?

FYIAD · 18/04/2008 09:37

I like cecilia but much prefer celia

not keen on any others, felicia and letizia are awful imo

misdee · 18/04/2008 09:42

honestly?

I only like Hannah out of that list.

nailpolish · 18/04/2008 09:44

i prefer felicity

felicia is too much like fellatio (sorry to be rude, but im being honest)

hannah is ok but slightly dull

Janni · 18/04/2008 09:44

Hannah
