Sidse

Sidse is a variation of Sisse or Sissa, all modern pet forms of Cecilia. To Americans, the most familiar bearer is Danish actress Sidse Babett Knudsen, who plays the Prime Minister of Denmark in TV's Borgen. Sidse might make a creative short form of Cecilia or an alternative to Sydney. Among Danish names for girls, this is one that's both distinctive and accessible.

Pronounced SID-suh.
