Lucinda

I met someone recently called Lucinda, it was the first time I'd heard the name. Just thought I'd put it out there although it's not one I'd use myself. I guess it'd be good for people who like the nicknames Lucy or Cindy.

it was on my list (nn Lucy) but I dumped it after we named our son Linus... my husband still wants to use it though. maybe for our 10th kid when it won't look so intentional.

HAHAHAHA. Sorry, that just made me laugh, the idea of a real life sibset named Linus and Lucy. That would be seriously fabulous :)

I've never met a person named Linus! I met a dog named Linus once, but that's it.

well, so far Linus is sandwiched between a Germaine and a Dietrich, so 1) I don't think Lucy really goes with the set as a whole, but 2) if we did use it it would definitely be way in the future after a variety of other names had been used (we plan on a lot of kids) and then people wouldn't necessarily make the connection. but I've got like 3 or so other girl names I like better, so it's really not likely that my husband could talk me into this.

p.s. just for a visual *points at icon* there's Linus! (I'm a moderator at pregnant and I use that icon over there for "official" posts or comments :P)
