I far prefer the appearance of Lucy.

Lucie, like Lucy, is gorgeous. It would definitely get misspelled in English-speaking countries and I wouldn't recommend using it unless you're really attached to Lucie and not Lucy. I've never really liked any of the full forms of Lucie / Lucy, although Lucienne is probably my favorite. I think it's find as a standalone, though; it's not one of those short names that needs a full form.

I know a Lucy who has a sister named Cara and I think that's a lovely combination. They have a brother too but I can't remember his name.

I like this spelling more than Lucy, which is too childish and frilly to me.
I think Lucie would get misspelled almost every time.
I'd use Lucie, it's great on its own.

Unless I was French or living in a Francophone country, I'd use Lucy. Can't see the point of Lucie where Lucy is the standard: it would lead to daily mistakes that would have to be corrected over and over for a lifetime, and IMO the mistake would be in using a non-English version in the first place. I don't think Lucy needs a "full form": if I used Lucienne, I would expect to use it in full.

I prefer Lucy. Yes Lucie would get misspelt. I like Lucy, Lucinda or Lucille as full names
