Cicilie Origin and Meaning

The name Cicilie is a girl's name.

Cicilie is a variant spelling of Cecilie, itself a Scandinavian and German form of Cecilia. The name ultimately derives from the Roman family name Caecilius, which comes from Latin "caecus" meaning "blind." Despite this etymology, the name gained prominence through St. Cecilia, the patroness of musicians in Christian tradition. Cicilie maintains the musical and delicate associations of its more common variants while offering a distinctive spelling. Popular in Norway and Denmark, Cicilie carries an air of classical elegance with its soft sounds. The variation in spelling gives the name a slightly more unique quality while preserving its historical and cultural connections to European heritage.
