Personal experiences with the name Lucille: | Edit

I only knew one young lady named Lucille and she was extremely smart. She was president of her class in high school and played at least three sports very well. Not to mention how nice and outgoing she was. I think it was because she was named after her great-grandmother, and she strove everyday to be as successful as she was in everything.

My grandmother's name was Lucille. Everyone called her Cille or Aunt Cille. As a result, my mother created my name, Tescille, so that my family members would call me Cille as well.
