Comments for CRESCENTIA:
Cool name!-- FairyGirl 7/17/2006
Considered extremely old fashioned in Germany, almost never given to babies today. Nickname: Zenzi.-- JHK 9/2/2006
Very pretty name!-- CharlieRob 9/20/2007
Pronounced cress-TSEN-tsee-ah in German. Short froms are Kreszenz and Zenzi. There are two Catholic saints by that name, martyr Saint Crescentia (died about 304 AD) and Saint Maria Crescentia Höss (1682-1744). An alternative spelling is Kreszentia, for example German politician Kreszentia Flauger (born 1966). It used to be quite popular in Catholic areas due to the saints, but it is rarely given to babies these days. Personally, I think it's a bit too much and prefer the shorter from Kreszenz.-- Hunaja 6/5/2008
English pronunciation: cre-SEN-shah, cre-SEN-shyah.-- erb816 4/8/2010
Though it might be "old-fashioned" in German, I think Crescentia is a beautiful name in English!-- erb816 4/8/2010
I'm just stunned out how beautiful this name is. It makes me think of a crescent moon, or the stars, or of a comet. It's very astronomical sounding.-- Black_X 10/31/2011
