My sister's name is Lucie. She is always annoyed when relatives and family members write her cards and don't spell her name correctly. Our mom always said it was the French way to spell it, and I guess she was correct! Once somebody was announcing her, and said loochie, instead of Lucie, and she was entering the stage for a dance performance. So embarrassing!
I really like Lucy spelled either way, but the -ie spelling is very pretty indeed and you don’t see it very often, so it’s very refreshing to meet a Lucie. On the rare occasion I do, I always think she’s blessed with a beautiful name. And never met a mean one either.
Lucie Herondale from The Last Hours series by Cassandra Clare. I love this name! Much better than Lucy, and I love Lucie Herondale. Plus, it's a great nickname for Lucia, which I also love.
I love love Lucie! I love Lucy too, very much, but I think Lucy is more boring than Lucie because it's seen everywhere, it's just so normal, it's also shorter in spelling than Lucie and I tend to like longer names. For all those reasons, I slightly prefer Lucie over Lucy. This spelling just looks a bit better. I also tend to like Lu- names in general, so I like the idea of a Lucia, Lucinda, Lucetta or Luciana, Lucille or anything along these lines being nicknamed to Lucie. Or maybe even names like Lucretia or Lucasta?
