Different Spelling
written by Cecelia Coan, June 16, 2008
I hated the name growing up, yet loved being the only girl in school with this name. There are so many nicknames that can be made with this name but those nicknames only served to make me a stronger person today. I sometimes go by CeCe or C2 due to my first and last initial. My mother always said she named me Cecelia because she like the name but my father always said I was named after his godmother Cecelia Ann. I Love This Name! And there is also a song out from the 1940s that is spelled the way my name is spelled that was sung by the Pied Pipers. Check it out, it is a pretty cool tune.
The best name
written by Laura, August 26, 2008
This my daughter's middle name and my also my mom's. Mainly the reason why I picked it is bc my mom passed away and I wanted my daughter to be named after her.
I love this name
written by Jillian Rounds, September 28, 2008
I had never considered this name until recently but I love old, classic sounding names and this is perfect!
Cecilia
written by Sydney, October 10, 2008
MY best friends name is Cecilia. I love her name, because it is not often heard. I find it funny because our friend Miranda calls her Cecil.
Cecilia Christina
written by Cecilia Christina Miller, October 14, 2008
I was named after my mother who is obviously named Cecilia. When I was a child I used to hate my name because I was the only one out of my friends who didn't have a name like Lauren, Katelyn, or Amy etc... As I grew older I fell in love with the ancient elegance of it. To me it seems almost regal. People may be turned off to the name because it means blind, but I like to think of the name in correlation with the Saint. Saint Cecilia is the patron saint of music and music is one of the most beautiful things in the world.
And yes I have had "Cecilia" by Simon and Garfunkle sung to me many times, usually by my high school history teacher when he was taking attendance.
I love the name Cecilia and if and when I ever have a daughter, I will have Cecilia somewhere in her name.
I really don't like..
written by Brynn , December 31, 2009
The name Cecilia. It's my first name and I don't like it at all, I prefer my middle name Brynn.
