Lucille? Would be Lucille Grace, nn Lulu or Lucy.
I think it's cute and really like it, and D suggested it, but I can't decide if it's got too much of an old-lady vibe...
-
I like it, esp the nicknames. I knew a Lucinda once too and that is pretty
-
I love it, def not to old fashioned
-
I know a newborn Lucille. It was my grandma's name so it's a bit oldish for me. But I think it's pretty. The Spanish version is Lucila. I like that quite a bit but my husband did not!
-
I love it and also love the name Lucy.
Lately I've really been into the name Louisa or Luisa
-
I'm indifferent on the name, but it makes me think of a character in Arrested Development.
-
Good god! Not too old fashioned at all. It's divine!
-
Love it.
-
Nope it's beautiful.
But I have a Maxine, so I think grandma-chic is kind of awesome....
-
@Rainbow Sprinkles: Also on my favorites list!
-
I LOVE that name and would use it in a heartbeat if I could convince DH.
-
I think it's totally cute!
-
Love it!
-
Love it!
-
Old fashioned names are totally making a comeback and are now the "cool" thing to do!
-
Love it
-
I don't love Lucille, but I like it, and I love both nicknames. I agree with others that old fashioned names are so hot right now.
C's name was number one in the late 1800's. But I don't think it sounds old fashioned.
-
I love Lucy!
-
I like Lucille and I love Lucy
-
Love it! One of my favs
-
DD's name is Luciana. We loved Lucy but we're only lukewarm on Lucille and Lucinda.
-
Make sure you hear the (Chuck Berry?) song first! I do think both of your potential nn are adorable!!!
-
No, I love it! I LOVE the nickname LuLu. If we hadn't had a dog named Lucy, who we called LuLu, I'd use it for a girl.
-
I know a Lucille (Lucy) who is about to turn one. I love it!
-
Aw yay, thanks for the feedback! We had Eleanor, Amelia and Grace on our short list last time, and Eloise this time...I love old-fashioned names, and I don't know why my brain hitched on this one.
-
I actually think it's both classic and current. But I am biased
-
Love it! My daughter has a granny name
-
I like it! And I like old fashioned names. My new fave is Clara!
I have a Grace and a Sadie!
-
We know a Lucille/-lulu/Lucy! Love it.
-
@travelingnanny: Same on the reference! My sis middle named her son Tobias and I was like "ehhhhh....never nude!"
Other than that, I love the name and prefer it to Lucy.
-
I'm ok with it but I absolutely love Lucy!
I would just name her Lucy!
-
I like it! And I love older names, dd's peaked in popularity in the 30s!
-
Love it! Our DD has an old lady name, but it fits her. I think the nn are perfect too.
-
I think it is lovely!
-
@lemong: love Luciana, a friend pointedly reminded me I'm not Italian so it's been off my list for years. The nn I had in mind was Lucky.
OP, Lucille w/ a nn Lucy is divine!
-
It makes me think of Arrested Development! Not a huge fan.
-
Love it esp with the nicknames
-
I love Lucille! I tried to add it to my girl list when I was preg but DH vetoed it.
-
love it because i love lucy! (the actress and the nickname)
-
Love it and the NNs!
