Lucretia

I'm so sorry but this name has always sounded like secretion to me...yuck.

Lucretia is such a beautiful name.

The first thing that comes to my mind when I hear this name is Lucrezia Borgia. So, I don't know what to think about that at all...

What a strong, beautiful, awesome name.

The mythical Lucretia committed suicide after her "defilement", because honor demanded it. It's a good name for a tragic character, someone who blithely follows what honor demands to the detriment of herself or others, but I wouldn't name a kid this.

I find out about this name when I heard about Lucretia Mott. I really hate the sound of this name. It sounds so ugly and harsh.

Actually, I've changed my mind over what I said about the name Lucretia. I don't have a problem with this name at all anymore. I think this name is beautiful and unique. :) You never expect names that you originally dislike to grow on you! :D.

I like this name, but I like Lucrezia even better.

It's okay... something makes me think the nicknames are better, though.

This is an absolutely beautiful name but I wouldn't feel happy naming my daughter after a victim of rape. It'd be like calling her Philomel or something. I don't know how many people would be aware of the namesake, though.

My father almost named me Lucretia, after his grandmother. However, my mom thought of nothing but Lucretia Borgia, the infamous poisoner, and saved me from having the name. Goodness, I'd have been named Lucretia Cassandra were it up to him. Lucky would be a cute nickname, though.
