Thoughts on the name Lucy.

What do you think? Just curious. Last name is similar to Griffin.

I love it, personally. Would it just be Lucy or would it be short for something?

TripMomma · April 2012

I really like the name. Not a big fan of Lucille, I do like Lucinda and love Lucia if you want to go for a fuller name, but I love just Lucy too.

Probably just Lucy. If we did use it as a nickname it would be for Lucile/Lucille.

Love Love Love!

I like it. I also like Lucienne as a full name, but I think it would be fine to just go with Lucy as well. Good luck!

I love it! I think it's sweet, feminine, and works well on any age.

Just so you know, it's the name of approximately 8 zillion dogs (including one of mine). But that doesn't really make me like it any less for a human.

This was my top girl name - I love it!!!

COMomma81 · April 2012

Well, I love it...it's my daughter's name

We get compliments on it all the time! It's a little more popular than I normally would like, but it's pretty much the only name I loved.

COMomma81 · April 2012

It does seem to be a really popular pet name...I've gotten a few "oh, my dog/cat is named Lucy" before... It kinda bothered me at first, but not anymore. Those people just chose to give their pets an awesome name

Lucille is LO's mn. I love it.

A FB friend just named her baby that with the mn Pearl. LOVE!

I think either Lucy on its own or a longer version with the nn Lucy is fine (I prefer having the longer version, but that is just me).

This. It's a gorgeous name and I'd love to use it myself, which is why I will forever regret giving a childhood dog this name.:)

LemonBlush · April 2012

Great name. It's on my list

MarxieVonTrapp · April 2012

I love it and it would totally be on my list if my sister's dog wasn't named Lucy.

And two of our neighbors' dogs are also named Lucy. But I don't see it as a 'dog' name the way I do Sadie or Cooper. Don't know why.

HeyJune · April 2012

I like it. It has had a recent surge of popularity in my area. I think this is because it pairs well with some of the other popular names right now. Sib sets like Abby, Lucy, Sophie, and Emma are very common in my area.

We took it off our list because I had concerns it wouldn't age well or wouldn't be professional enough unless it was a nickname for something else - and DH didn't like any of the longer names it could be a nickname for.

dinnerfor2 · April 2012

I love it! I have heard of quite a few babies names Lucy recently, it is a beautiful name.

jmay4 · April 2012

I love it! DH vetoed it for us because of the teasing potential of "Lucy Goosey" but that really doesn't bother me at all. Kids will always find something to make fun of.

Perhaps I'll work on him to add it back on!

Mamaofthesea · April 2012

Love! It was a top contender for this baby if he had been a girl. I think it ages just fine. I knew a Lucy in college and she was just a lovely, sweet woman. I never once thought that her name sounded young or immature.

BLPL101 · April 2012

Cute name. It's not something I'd have on my list, but I do like it.

zaramarie81 · April 2012

It can stand alone, but I prefer it as a nickname for a longer name (but it's one of my favorite nn's!).

alliejo725 · April 2012

Lucy is one of those names that everyone likes, but few people LOVE. For that reason, I think it's a great choice---you'll get lots of compliments and positive reactions, but your daughter will run into very few other Lucy's.
