Or a different, similar name? I’m inclined to think Cecily will stand out while Celia will blend in… opinions?

[name_f]Cecily[/name_f]! I think it’s quite unique in sound and I love its y ending! I don’t think [name_f]Celia[/name_f] would necessarily “blend in”, but I think you are more likely to hear [name_f]Celia[/name_f] in your surroundings than [name_f]Cecily[/name_f]. To me, [name_f]Cecily[/name_f] sounds very regal and classy, so I really like the vibe it evokes. Nothing wrong with [name_f]Celia[/name_f] though, it is simply a matter of taste!

I would use [name_f]Cecily[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f], but I love [name_f]Celia[/name_f] to, especially because of the [name_m]Jonson[/name_m] poem and the setting that composer [name_m]Richard[/name_m] [name_f]Faith[/name_f] wrote for it.

To me [name_f]Celia[/name_f] is a middle aged/turning pension aged woman and [name_f]Cecily[/name_f] is younger and fresher.

I would say [name_f]Celia[/name_f] is more likely to standout and [name_f]Cecily[/name_f] blend in, but that might depend where you are.

I’ve met a few girls called [name_f]Cecily[/name_f], I’ve never known a young [name_f]Celia[/name_f]

Other suggestions:

Cielle
[name_f]Lucille[/name_f]

[name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] is probably my favorite similar name. I don’t love how [name_f]Cecily[/name_f] has “silly” at the end :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
