Middle name for Cecily

[loobylu3]

Hi everyone,

Only 12 wks to go until DC3 is due and, although we haven't agreed on a name yet, Cecily is my current favourite.

Am thinking about middle names. Could I have some opinions on the following and any other suggestions too? Baby's surname begins with B and is 3 syllables.

Cecily Beatrix
Cecily Flora
Cecily Alice (Alice is my sister's name)
Cecily Iris
Cecily Kate
Cecily Eve

Thanks a lot!

Am v jealous as Cecily is my fav girls name but DH says absolutely not.

For me it would have been Cecily Anne as I also have a 3 syllable surname.

Livia is lovely too.

Ooh yes, I much prefer Livia to Cecily. I just love the unusual-but-easy-and-feminine ring to Livia .

I think Cecily Flora sounds the best. Alice is lovely, but too similar - too many -s- sounds. Alice Flora would be lovely, though.

If you're a Beatrix Potter fan, what about Cecily Jemima? I am considering Jemima Cecily for a potential daughter.

Thanks LuciaRose. I like Cecily Flora but nobody else seemed to! I've just seen your thread so I cansee that you like this kind of slightly old fashioned, elegant name!
