Lucille?
What do you think of Lucille, nn Lulu?ETA: "Lulu" subject to change, I'm not sure I'd use it, but I like it more than Lucy, and I think she may grow out of it, who knows.Thanks in advance. =)

Not a HUGE fan of Lucille but it's okay. I love the name Lucy and I think Lulu is also a cute nn.

Love Lucy, but Lucille is ok, and Lulu is not really my style. This is one rare case in which I would probably use a nn for a fn. Lulu seems a little flighty and frivolous to me, but it might be cute for a little girl. I do like Louisa and Louise, though, also.

I love the name Lucille but I guess I like the nn Lucy better. Althoug, Lulu isn't to bad.

I hate Lucy (it's so overused as a full name here) so I get the desire to avoid it with another nickname ... But I really don't think Lucille needs one. It's a nice name but I prefer Lucilla, or Lucinda for that matter. I don't like Lulu because it reminds me of loo - as in toilet :-/
I suppose it could be cute for a toddler but no older.

Lucille is pretty, I like it. I love Lulu and I don't think she would necessarily grow out of it. I've seen it used on an adult lady before and it sounded pretty. I adore the name Lucy and have been re-discovering it again lately. It's always been a fave of mine.

I love Lucy (hehe), and I really like both Lucille and Lulu. But if you love Lucille and Lulu, I think it's a great idea for a nn. A little childish, yes. But I'd rather meet a Lulu than a Madisyn anyday. :)

Weird as it may sound, while Lucila is on my big favourites list, I'm not too keen on Lucille. Not a big fan of Lulu either.

I prefer just Lucy, Lulu and Lucille are NMS.

Lucille, I hate. It is so dated and just does not have a pretty sound to me. It feels harsh and shrill. Lulu is cute, fun, & arty/creative.

"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille.
Four hungry children and a crop in the field..."Sorry, that's the first thing that comes to my mind. I like the song mind you. And I like Lucille better than Lucy.NOT Lulu! That's a name for a redneck woman, or a cow.

I adore Lucille; it's one of my favourites. I hate Lulu, though.
