We are going to try for #3 soon, and so I’ve begun to think of names. Here is my dilemma. I love the name [name]Lucy[/name], and planned to use it for #3. We have a [name]Caleb[/name] and an [name]Annabel[/name], and [name]Lucy[/name] just fits perfectly (provided #3 is a girl of course.) That was until my sister named her son [name]Lucas[/name]. The two are too close for comfort for me. I can’t very well ask her to rename her son, lol, so now the hunt is on for [name]Lucy[/name] alternatives. I’d love all the suggestions you can give me in hopes that I’ll fall in love with another girl’s name. Thanks!

[name]Lucy[/name] means light, so you could go with these as alternatives:
[name]Alba[/name], Italian for dawn or daybreak
All the [name]Clare[/name]/[name]Claire[/name]/[name]Clara[/name]/[name]Clarissa[/name]/[name]Clarice[/name]/[name]Chiara[/name] variations
All the [name]Helen[/name]/[name]Ellen[/name]/[name]Eleanor[/name]/[name]Elaine[/name]/Elanet/[name]Eluned[/name] variations
[name]Liora[/name], G-d has given light, or [name]Eliora[/name], common in [name]Israel[/name]
Perhaps the [name]Lucy[/name] variations are all too close to [name]Lucas[/name]? [name]Lucia[/name], [name]Lucinda[/name], [name]Lucasta[/name], [name]Luciana[/name], [name]Lucille[/name], [name]Lucine[/name]?
You could also go for “fire” names ([name]Adar[/name]), star names ([name]Esther[/name]), or white names ([name]Wynne[/name], [name]Gwyneth[/name], etc).
Hey!
[name]Lucy[/name] is a lovely name, with a big range of alternatives, so I think you’ll find one you really love:
The first that comes to my mind is [name]Lucia[/name], I have always found it so pure and simple! It’s lovely, and I think you could use [name]Lucy[/name] like a nickname, or even the spunky [name]Lulu[/name] sounds great!
What about [name]Lucinda[/name]? It’s a bit old-lady (at least for me), and I think it’d flow good with [name]Caleb[/name] and [name]Anabel[/name]. You could use [name]Luciana[/name], I think this alternative dinamize the name, and is not really close to [name]Luca[/name] (a think that [name]Lucia[/name] definetly is)
[name]Lucille[/name] or [name]Lucilla[/name] ar both fresh alternatives, and I think that both of them sound nice with her silblings.
I think that you could use [name]Lucero[/name] too, at least you could get the nickname [name]Lucy[/name] from there.
You could also use a name with a similar meaning, [name]Lucy[/name] means light, so maybe this names could be alternatives:
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and Alaula - Maybe is not your style…
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Elena[/name]
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Eliora[/name] (I love this one)
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Luz[/name] (It’s mean ligth in Spanish, so I think it’s a good alternative, but maybe it sounds a bit incomplete next to [name]Caleb[/name] and [name]Anabel[/name])
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Magali[/name]
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Eleanor[/name]/[name]Eleanora[/name]/[name]Nora[/name] (I reallt like this)
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Thea[/name]
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Selene[/name]/[name]Selena[/name] (she was the godess of the moon ligth)
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Zora[/name]
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Saskia[/name] ([name]Saskia[/name] means “valley of ligth”)
Some names I think flow good with your kids, but that don’t have any conection with [name]Lucy[/name]:
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Violet[/name]
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Louisa[/name]
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Beatrice[/name]
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Amelia[/name]
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Olive[/name]
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Charlotte[/name]
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Penelope[/name]
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Eliza[/name]
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Claire[/name]
[name]Caleb[/name], [name]Anabel[/name] and [name]Marin[/name]
Good luck!

I personally don’t think [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Lucas[/name] are too close (in sound, at least), but I can understand your concern. What is it you love about [name]Lucy[/name]? To me, it has a slightly vintage lightness that fits well with [name]Caleb[/name] and especially [name]Annabel[/name]. It’s a really cheery name. [name]Louella[/name] and [name]Louisa[/name] spring to mind for the sound (and [name]Lucy[/name] isn’t a completely counter-intuitive nn for either if you want.) [name]Eloise[/name] / [name]Eloisa[/name] is similar, though nn [name]Lucy[/name] is a little less obvious for those.)
[name]Alice[/name], [name]Astra[/name], [name]Belle[/name], [name]Betsy[/name], [name]Camille[/name], [name]Cassie[/name], [name]Cecily[/name], [name]Hettie[/name], [name]Holly[/name], [name]Iris[/name], [name]Lilla[/name], [name]Lulu[/name], [name]Luna[/name], [name]Lyra[/name], [name]Nyssa[/name], [name]Penny[/name], [name]Poppy[/name], [name]Tessa[/name], and [name]Wren[/name] all have a similar lively, sunshiney feel to me.
Nameberry has a short list of names under the heading “If you like [name]Lucy[/name], you might love…”. They are: [name]Daisy[/name], [name]Dulcie[/name], [name]Ivy[/name], [name]Josie[/name], [name]Louisa[/name], [name]Lulu[/name], [name]Mae[/name], [name]Maisie[/name], [name]Posey[/name], [name]Rosie[/name], [name]Ruby[/name]
You hit the nail on the head! I love the way [name]Lucy[/name] feels. That slight vintage feel, without all the heavy lace and mauve tinted satin, if that makes sense. I have been toying with the idea of using it anyway, but I’m rather certain my sister would be upset. I do really like [name]Alice[/name], [name]Louisa[/name], [name]Daisy[/name], [name]Maisie[/name], [name]Penny[/name], and [name]Wren[/name]. [name]Cecily[/name] would be on that list, as well, but my husband has already vetoed it.
Thats a bummer 
I honestly don’t think that [name]Lucas[/name] and [name]Lucy[/name] are too close though.
Other names you might like:
[name]Grace[/name]
[name]Lily[/name]
[name]Claire[/name]
[name]Elle[/name]
[name]Kate[/name]
I dont think [name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Lucas[/name] are too close at all! sure they both have that [name]Lu[/name] sound at the start but because the following letter C’s are both spoken very different to me means they arent similar.
If you really really dont want to use [name]Lucy[/name] i think you should try and do something quite similar because theres a reason why you like [name]Lucy[/name] so much 
and i would suggest:
[name]Luciana[/name]
[name]Lucinda[/name]
[name]Lucia[/name]
