Opinions on the girl name Cecily?
I understand that when you throw out a name that's uncommon, you're going to get some negative opinions. More than you would with a trendy name because some people just dislike unique. So how does everyone like the name Cecily? I love this name for some reason, I just think it's beautiful. It's pronounced SESS-ILL-EEE. Thanks!

Like yourself, I'm also a huge fan of unique baby names! And I must agree with you that Cecily is a beautiful name! I'm a fan of the spelling and how its pronounced. The only negative is I prefer Cecilia, but Cecily is still extremely pretty! Good luck!

What a beautiful name! I usually like more common names (more old-fashioned, I guess), but I really love Cecily! I also like Cecilia, but of course you could also use Cecily as a nickname... It's a great name, anyway.
I think unlike some of the other "unique" names, Cecily sounds really classy and elegant.
As I middle name I personnally would pick either Rose or Mia -> Cecily Rose sounds amazing!

I like the name Cecily. For some reason when I was really young, I thought that Strawberry Shortcake character's name was Cecily, though I have no idea why, having never even known anyone named Cecily until I was at least seventeen.

I love the name Cecily. It's such a pretty, old fashioned name. Yet its not really common either. It's very feminine.
