Help[Opinions] Re: Cynthia or Cecelia?
in reply to a message by Julie
I like Cecelia and Cynthia both, actually. (And I also like Cecilia; both spellings appeal to me.) I don't, however, like how Thia looks--like "thigh." Ugh. And it just sounds contrived to me. Perhaps Cinda as a nickname? Or just Cynthia on its own. :)
For Cecelia/Cecilia, my favourite nickname is definitely Cili/Celie (SEE-lee), but that might be alternatively too much like "cilia" or too The Colour Purple for you. Celia is nice, too, but it seems like a full name in itself; I can't quite reconcile it as a nickname.
In the end, I think I'd pick Cecelia for you, since you don't want a Cindy and that nickname's associated so strongly with Cynthia. For me, I think I'd choose Cynthia today--but I like Cindy (or Cyndi, which makes more sense, honestly).

"Yes," said Laura.
A revolution without dancing is a revolution not worth having.
