Got it down to two...

krissywags

I have been wanting to post this question for a while but knowing how brutally honest this board is it has taken me a while.  I think I am ready to hear your thoughts because we are stuck!

DH and I are stuck between two versions of our girls name: 

Lucy Anna - or - Lucianna (or Lucyanna) Kay

Thanks for your thoughts and advice!

Afterthought: she will be called Lucy no matter what... Lucy and Anna are grandmothers while Kay is my mom's MN... Our last name is one syllable

I really like the name Lucy ;-) I prefer for the names to be separated probably because I'm more used to that rather than Lucianna.

I have a Niece Lucy and she is awesome, and loves her name.  Lucianna sounds latino to me.  If you are I'd say go for that, if not, separate it.

I like Luciana spelled this way.Very nice name.

LUCIANA

Gender: Feminine

Usage: Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Ancient Roman

Pronounced: loo-CHAH-nah (Italian), loo-THYAH-nah (Spanish), loo-SYAH-nah (Latin American Spanish)  [key]

Feminine form of LUCIANUS

This!  I understand the reasoning for the unique spelling but I would still spell it this way.

I get that they both sound the same but for some reason, Lucy Anna is a bit strange to me. I much prefer Luciana!

All of this. Luciana Kay is beautiful.

I prefer Lucy

*Bloom2be*

Definitely spell it Lucianna or separate the 2 completely I would go with Lucianna Kay if I was you GL!

Lucianna is great, but if she'll go by Lucy, go for Lucy Anna.

I agree with this. Knew a beautiful Italian girl named Luciana and the name fit her so well.

Lucy Anna. The simplicity is much more attractive.

Though on second thought, I'm confused. Are you considering naming her either a double name or Luciana, middle name Kay regardless? Because that changes my vote.

If it's just Lucy Anna vs Luciana Kay = Lucy Anna wins.

If it's Lucy Anna Kay vs. Luciana Kay = Luciana Kay wins.

Love Luciana (or your spelling - Lucianna); it's unique and really classic. Also, since your last name is one syllable (mine, too) longer first names work well.

I like both Lucy and Luciana, but I think there may be a pronunciation difference here.  Luciana is pronounced loo-see-ahh-na.  Your spelling makes me think that you want it pronounced loo-see-aa (like in apple) -na.  If this is the way you want Lucianna pronounced, then I vote for Lucy.

All of this. Depends on if Kay is in regardless.

I have even a better idea for you:  Analucia - LOVE IT!
