I quite enjoy it, sound/feel/meaning. :)
I've always really liked it, ever since I was a kid and heard it on the American Girl character. I think it's lovely.
Felicity...
Was the best American Girl character. When everyone else was all, "I love Samantha." I was like, "No, the Revolutionary period was way cooler and she rides a horse."
Just my bias, though. ;)

I have always thought Felicity was quite pretty actually. It certainly isn't popular for little girls these days either, which is nice.
Like/love it. It's much better than Felicia (which is my second MN).
I like it. It is classic, sweet, not-overused. Since it hasn't been overused, I don't think of it as dated.
One of my favorite novels, which I first read when I was thirteen, has a character named Felicity, who is described as physically unattractive. One of the other characters describes her as "looking like the back end of a tram." This has affected my perception of the name. It always makes me think of someone big and clunky.
I hate it. It's so precious it's like a mouthful of Splenda. Besides it sounds like fellatio and electricity, and is a twee old fashioned religious reference to Heaven. Knowing a nice young girl named Felicity has not mitigated my loathing for this name at all. I thought it would. I used to like the name when I was a little girl and I wanted to name a cat it.

I like it. I think it's a fun, sunshiney name. It lightens up a lot of "heavier" names when used in combos with them.
