    I've decided there's not a lot of helpful people on this board. Maybe I'm just being tired & cranky... LOL.

    My opinon is Elise. It's pretty. What's the middle name you have picked out?!

  • I think they are both pretty but I like Elise better.

    I also think its a classic name that even if people don't like it, they won't think its a bad name.

  • I love both but I think I like Elise just a bit more.

  • While I prefer Elise, Lucia is also a nice name. My favorite of the pronunciations for it is Loo-see-uh. (The others are Loo-chee-uh and Loo-sha.)

  • I love Elise... But that's going to be this baby's name so I'm biased ; ). My bff daughter is named Lucia (pronounced Lu-sha) and I just adore it!! Both are fabulous!

  • I like them both, but I'd say Elise just because you will constantly be explaining how to pronounce Lucia.

  • I prefer Elise.  Lots of people will mess up pronouncing Lucia.  For her entire life she will have to explain to people how to say her name properly. 

  • Elise.

  • I like Elise, beautiful and elegant!
  • I like Lucia (Lu-cee-a or Lu-chee-a) a lot and if Lu-chee-a didn't rhyme with our Italian last name, it would be a contender.

    Elise is also lovely.

    To give my final answer, I'd need to know who you'll pronounce Lucia.  I don't really think it is that big a deal that people may not pronounce Lucia the way you do when they first see it--they'll know after hearing it once.

  • I love Elise.  I also like Lucia, but I'm never sure how to pronounce it (Lu-SEE-uh, or LU-sha?)

  • We named our dd Lucia, after the reigon of Spain she was conceived in, so we say it the Spanish way Lu-see-ah, but we are italian so everyone says Lu-chea.  Not a big deal to correct people but they always pronounce it wrong.
