I prefer the spelling [name_f]Cicely[/name_f], and prefer [name_f]Cicely[/name_f] to [name_f]Tessa[/name_f]. But I prefer [name_f]Tessa[/name_f] to [name_f]Sicily[/name_f]. Also I like [name_f]Tess[/name_f] better than [name_f]Tessa[/name_f]. [name_f]Tessa[/name_f] [name_f]Ann[/name_f] is also a bit hard to say with the two As. Something like [name_f]Tess[/name_f] [name_f]Annabel[/name_f] flows a bit smoother.

There’s also the girls name Tessan, which is a lot like [name_f]Tessa[/name_f] [name_f]Ann[/name_f], but in one name!

Completely agree with all of this, though I don’t have a strong preference between [name_f]Tess[/name_f] and [name_f]Tessa[/name_f].

hmm, maybe [name_f]Cicely[/name_f] is a nicer spelling. I wonder if Sicely (or [name_f]Cicely[/name_f]) has a nn option?

@Starbuck - I actually have a friend named [name_f]Cicely[/name_f] and her nn is Cice, pronounced like sis. Other options are, Cee, Cici, [name_f]Cilla[/name_f].

aw! cici is super cute for when she’s little!

Sorry, not a huge fan of [name_f]Sicily[/name_f] so I voted for [name_f]Tessa[/name_f]. But I would prefer [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f]/[name_f]Celia[/name_f]/[name_f]Cecily[/name_f] to [name_f]Tessa[/name_f].

[name_f]Sicily[/name_f] has always been hard for me to say for some reason. I really like [name_f]Tessa[/name_f], though, and think it goes wonderfully with her big brother’s name. :slight_smile:
