Cecil is a very strong boy name, I think it would sound really weird on a girl. I LOVE Cecily though, which is a girl's name and still honors Cecil. Cecily is pron. Sess-uh-lee. Cecilia is pretty too. Clair and Blair started out as boy's names, so they don't really feminize it very well. I would go with Cecily Claire, so pretty!

I personaly love your paying respect. i have myself. How about maybe cecilia and well clair and blair to me sound wrong with it. maybe cecilia rose, cecilia (with a maybe less unique name a more known girl name for example cecilia lynn(a single sound name for middle sounds good to me though ur lastname is important when making a name so take that into account. good luck and remember it is you and husbands baby not theirs.thank them for input but over all its up to you. i had a inlaw problem too they are obsesed with "L" names i told them thanx but 2 many L's in the family maybe as a middle but not as first and they were okay with it after told them what i felt.
