I don't like either one, but if I had to pick I'd go with Cecily.

I've liked Cecily ever since I read "The Outlaws of Sherwood"... which is probably why it gives me a medieval sort of feel. As far as nns, I like Sess (Cec? Cess?). Although it doesn't really need a nn. I like Cecilia nn Celia too. Cecily Raine, Cecily Annelise, Cecily Iseult, Cecily Willow, Cecily Agrona, Cecily Siobhan, Cecily Pascale, Cecily Ivy, Cecily Annis, Cecily Sparrow

I prefer Cecilia, personally.

Cecilia is a family name for me, so I've always had it as a possible name on my list.

---

The sounds in the name Cecily, for some reason, remind me too much of the word "sissy."

---

And I always think back to the film version of A Room With A View where the snooty and pretentious Cecil almost marries our hotblooded heroine Lucy.

I really like Cecily and I prefer it over Cecilia.

I've always enjoyed Cecily: my dad was one of the last Cecils. Cecilia is a good song but an excessively fluffy and frilly name.

There was a birth announcement recently: Cecily Alice Jean. Hard to improve on that.

Ooh, I love Cecily! x) It's so delicate yet strong, simple but complicated. :P It feels like everything. And I prefer Cecily to Cecilia.

I love Cecily! At the moment, however, I prefer Cecilia.

Cecilia is lovely as well, but I strongly prefer Cecily.

Cecily is absolutely gorgeous. It's my favorite name at the moment. It's been a permanent fixture on my list since I was about 16 (21 now). I do sometimes switch it out with Cecilia, but lately I've come to think of Cecilia as sounding "old," whereas I find Cecily much lighter, daintier, and more fresh.
