Sounds a bit prissy to me. tongue.gif
clumpy
Prissy was the first word I thought of too. original.gif

I have difficulty separating it from the Presleys.

I love it but don't think I ever could use it.

TBH I actually like it and know a young Brazilian girl named "Priscilla" but something about it screams drag queen, to me.. blush.gif

And then there's the obvious "Priscilla Presley" connection..

My first thought was Priscilla Queen of the Desert!
Divine53
not a fan
*tooty*
My first cat was Priscilla!

Other than that, I think of Priscilla Queen of the Desert.

Not overly fond of the name actually..
MnM
Yeah Queen of the Desert here too - not a fan either...Cilla for short..like Cilla even less than Pricilla

I know of an adult Priscilla who hates it and calls herself Chloe grin.gif

I don't dislike it, I once knew a lovely little girl called Priscilla. However, the Priscilla I know at the moment is not the nicest of people, so that puts me off a little.

Queen of the Desert or Presley??

Sorry, but really dislike this name..
Annetta
I rather like it - its a "girlie" style of name which is not too common & sort older style which is my preference in names and there are alot of "girlie" names out there at the moment which are really popular. happy.gif I've also got an adult cousin named Priscilla who has been called Cilla most of the time which is nice too.

good luck

Difficult one for anyone to carry I would think.

It's different, but not my cup of tea grin.gif
mum_to_cutie

Straight*No*Chaser
I'd go as far as saying I hate it.
saffybean
I am going to go against the grain and say I LOVE it wub.gif wub.gif

It was number 1 on the list for number 3 and I was going to fight for it physically if I had to wink.gif Sadly, number 3 won't ever happen.
shauna'smum
I like it!.
Priscilla presley was once a very attractive lady before cosmetic surgery destroyed her beauty so that would never put me off it.
Its a very glam name and would not suit a tomboy laughing2.gif .

Does not remind me of a drag queen because the BUS was named Priscilla not any of the drag queens.

I think if the parents had a background in the arts and its very possible that any offspring would go down the same path then I think it would be a great name.

Not suitable for a very 'sporty' family though.
