I’m so biased here because [name\_f]Felicity[/name\_f] is one of my _absolute_ favorite names and I would 100% want a [name\_f]Felicity[/name\_f] of my own one day. [name\_f]Theodora[/name\_f] is a lovely name with lots of history and though the records might not show it, I think she’s becoming familiar and loved. Both names are so lovely and so worthy. I would pick [name\_f]Felicity[/name\_f] in a heartbeat, but as much as it kills me, I’m wondering if [name\_f]Theodora[/name\_f] feels more right for you? It almost sounds to me that [name\_f]Theodora[/name\_f] is the name that feels most right but you’re concerned subconsciously about how others will perceive the name, so you tried to talk yourself into all these other names? Maybe I’m reading into it wrong, but that’s the vibes my heart is getting. And if that’s the case, use Theodora—she is so worthy of it! [name\_f]Teddie[/name\_f], [name\_f]Thea[/name\_f], and [name\_f]Dora[/name\_f] are adorable, or even [name\_f]Odie[/name\_f]!

But I will never vote against my beloved [name\_f]Felicity[/name\_f], either lol. I don’t love [name\_f]Fliss[/name\_f] or [name\_f]Flick[/name\_f] either, but I’ve grown to LOVE the nn [name\_f]Cici[/name\_f] (or [name\_f]Cece[/name\_f]) for her. It’s hard for me to separate the two, but I do like [name\_f]Ella[/name\_f], [name\_f]Elle[/name\_f], Fizzy (though probably unusable with [name\_f]Izzy[/name\_f] lol), City, Liesey (Lee-see), or even [name\_f]Effie[/name\_f] too!

Good luck!
