Poor kid...I really don't understand why parents get crazy with spelling traditional names all funky. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-pronounce-this-name-3#post-1896068 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 21:06:41 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1896068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd assume like Cecilia. Cecelia is a much prettier spelling, IMO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-pronounce-this-name-3#post-1896067 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 21:06:11 +0000 Purpledaisy 1896067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm guessing Cecelia? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-pronounce-this-name-3#post-1895976 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 20:00:32 +0000 wonderstruck 1895976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would assume that she likes the name Cecilia but wants to be 'you-neek' </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-pronounce-this-name-3#post-1895888 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 19:13:13 +0000 blackbird 1895888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cecilia, you're breaking my heart! </p> <p>That spelling looks complicated </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-pronounce-this-name-3#post-1895878 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 19:07:27 +0000 Meowkers 1895878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm guessing she's going for Cecelia but honestly my first reaction was Seh-Sell-eeh-ah </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-pronounce-this-name-3#post-1895875 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 19:06:39 +0000 lovehoneybee 1895875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anya: @yoursilverlining: I hope so! I love the name Cecelia and was a bit disappointed that she chose a non-traditional spelling, assuming Cecelia is the pronunciation she wants (but I'm pretty traditional...) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-pronounce-this-name-3#post-1895867 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 19:03:20 +0000 yoursilverlining 1895867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's the question that poor child will be faced with every single day for the rest of her life!</p> <p>I would guess like Cecelia? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-pronounce-this-name-3#post-1895858 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 18:57:39 +0000 Anya 1895858@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just like in the Simon and garfunkel song</p> <p>ETA but I've never encountered that spelling IRL, that would just be my assumption </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-pronounce-this-name-3#post-1895850 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 18:53:30 +0000 lovehoneybee 1895850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Seselia</p> <p>Would you pronounce it like Cecelia or Seh-sell-ee-ah? Or Cecil-leah? </p> <p>My stepsister had a baby yesterday, and D and I have been debating how to say it :silly: </p> <p>(I thought it was going to be Cecelia, but I haven't had a chance to talk to her yet to ask...) </p>
