I love this name but someone is trying to veto it! Is it classic and cute, or ''an old lady name'', or even worse does it remind anyone of coeliac disease??

Comments please

It's my grandmas name so i'd say old lady name, sorry

I love it.

Lovely classic name.

Coeliac disease? Don't be daft. No more than Dinah would make me me think of diarrhoea. Every name would make us think of a disease in that case.

I think it is lovely!
It does not make me think of Coeliac disease either!

I love it - our DD2 has mn Cecelia and it was very nearly her first name with nn Cece

all good in my book

Coeliac disease? behave yourself!!

I like Cecilia too. I had a Swedish penpal called that when I was little.

I love it.

Celia is lovely. The prejudice I have is neither classic, cute or old, but 'posh'.
