It's more or less Cecelia. When we would write in German and not feel like writing an A with umlauts (the two dots above the A), we'd shortcut with AE in its place. http://www.behindthename.com/name/ca12cilia

agreedCaecilia = Cäcilia which is pronounced like Cecilia

I think that it might be more like kay-SEE-lee-ah.
However you say the first syllable, it still seems to clash with the rest of it and that upsets the flow of the entire name.

I think it's pronounced exactly like Cecilia. and I think Cecilia is much prettier.

Where did you see that prn? That looks like the Latin form of Cecilia and it would be prn more like kai-KELL-ee-ah, I think, though I'm not a Latin expert. Your prn is pretty, I'll give you that, but you need a spelling to match it. Shaycelia? Shaecelia? Sheicelia? Sheycelia? Hmm...
