I cannot find any worthwhile reason of why you should name your child this other than the rather diminutive choice - after the Great Aunt. However, I prefer the name Lucelle (loo-sell). My own little creation!

I really like the name Lucille. It's a nice alternative to the growing populars Lucia and Lucy.

I love the name Lucille. Could also be Lucilla. And the nicknames could be Luce/Loose, Celia, and Lucy. However Lucille sort of reminds me of Lucifer. Which is a bad, bad thing!

While this is a very old name, I think it's very elegant and feminine.

This is a beautiful name. Lucille sounds like a cute young girl with a blond braid.

I prefer it pronounced "Loo-SILL" rather than "Loo-SEEL" - after all, in English, the "seel" sounds like "see-yul", and that's no closer to the French than "Loo-SILL". "Loo-SEEYL" sounds pretentious and impractical to me.

I think Lucille looks prettier than it sounds - I prefer the sound of Lucy/Lucie.

Lucille has a nice ring to it. It sounds feminine, elegant, and fun all at the same time. I LOVE this name!

B.B. King has two guitars, both of which are named Lucille, Lucille 1 and Lucille 2. He named his guitar this because he nearly died trying to save his guitar in a burning building, and he heard that two men had died in the fire fighting over a woman named Lucille. He named his guitar Lucille to remind him never to be that stupid.

I think Lucille is a nice, old-fashioned, classy, feminine name. It goes fabulously with my other favorite girl names.
