  I would pronounce it Loo-sill-uh as well. I think it's pretty!

  I would pronounce the same way you do, and I think it's a very pretty name!!!
  
  There's also Lucia or Lucretia but I really like Lucilla, I don't think I would've thought of that but it's so pretty and I think the best

  I would pronounce it loo-sill-uh also. I don't really like it. I think Lucy works well on its own but if you want longer than I like Lucia as pp mentioned.

  I love Lucy as a FN and have been trying to sell DH on it for years.  I'm not a NN-as-FN person but I think Lucy is perfectly fine on its own and suitable for all stages of life.  I like it better than anything it can be a NN for.

  Don't forget about Lucretzia. My great aunt Lucy was named that.
  
  I always liked Lucretia, like Lucretia Mott.

  I've never heard of Lucilla before, but I would guess it is pronounced as you have listed.

  
  

  If we were to have another daughter, her name would be Lucy. Lucy is a stand alone name, just the English variant of the Italian/Spanish Lucia. My favorite longer version to get to Lucy is Lucinda. Then she also has the option of Cinda as a NN.

  I love Lucretia/Lucretzia, but I'd probably never go for it in real life. I also love Lucinda and Lucille. But Lucy is really fine on it's own, it's a great name.
