User Comments about the name Cynthia
Comment left Jul 10, 2010: "My name is Cynthia. I'm ok with it, when I was younger I sometimes wished it was something else since it wasn't common but not anymore. I never went by a nickname until recently when friends and family started calling me Cee, which I'm ok with. However, I really hate when people just decide to call me Cindy since I hate the name Cindy! And never went by it as a nickname. I try to correct people now but many people who knew me as a little girl can't kick the habit! Maybe one day I won't be called Cindy anymore!" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jun 06, 2010: "Hi my name is also CINTHIA.. Many of my close friends call me cin cin which is ok by me.. It does however annoy me when people spell my name differently. When up to my senior year in high school I was the only Cinthia in my school, so many guys wanted to date me since my name was unique.. So that was a plus since I had the hottest guys in school. Now in college I'm still the only cinthia and I love it!!! I'm soo glad my dad decided to name me cinthia instead of Roxanna." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left May 07, 2010: "I love my name and I love that it is associated with the moon. As I child I didn't like it and wanted a more common name like Vicky or Cathy but now I am so happy that my name is Cynthia. It is such a classy and elegant name. I do not like to be called Cindi/Cindy and insist on being introduced as Cynthia. I don't mind being called Cyn by my close friends/family but prefer Cynthia. All through grade school I was the only Cynthia; in high school there was only one other girl and we are still friends! She prefers Cynthia over Cindi/Cindy too. All in all, it is a very special name and I'm so happy my Mom insisted I be named Cynthia. Thanks Mom!" (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Mar 12, 2010: "My name is Cynthia, I like my name. But thinking that people always spell it wrong kind of bothers me. And BTW, I get mad when people call me Cindy." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Dec 04, 2009: "This is my name. I go by Cynthia and always have. I never used to like my name as a kid, partly because it seemed like a name for someone much older. Over time, though, it's grown on me. Also, I've noticed other people seem to like my name, especially men. Plus, as someone else mentioned, the name Cynthia has a very cool meaning/history."

Comment left Oct 17, 2009: "my name is cynthia and i love it!!
i think its classy and elegant
but i don't like being called cynthia but i hate the name cind. when i was smaller i used to call myself cini (tsi-ni) and everyone has been calling me that ever since.
i really like it and nobody i know, they don't know another cini so please don't copy it.
ALSO THE NICKNAME IS YOU, IT'S WHO YOU ARE AND THE MEMORIES THAT CAME ALONG WITH THAT NAME. IT'S NOT LIKE A HAIR CUT U CHANGE IT EVERY TIME YOU GET TIRED OF IT. think about it" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left May 04, 2009: "My name is Cynthia Ann and I go by Cindy. Cynthia for legal things. I don't mind either name. Another nickname is Cyn.
Oh, I don't like it if you use my middle name with Cindy. Cindy Ann sounds like Raggedy Ann to me. Only my boyfriend can call me that and get away with it." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Apr 28, 2009: "My name is Cynthia and I think it's a great name. My family calls me Cyndi but I prefer to be introduced as Cynthia. I am a tall voluptuous woman and I definitely don't look like a Cyndi:)." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Feb 04, 2009: "I was born in the 70's and my parents named me Cynthia but called me Cindy. Growing up I tried changing the way I spelled Cindy to Cyndi. I grew out of that prior to jr high. When I hit my 30's and started a new job, I introduced myself as Cynthia. It wasn't until I got married and co-workers attended my wedding that my name Cindy came back. Co-workers were blown away that everybody else who knew me called me Cindy. Now I am coming up on 38 years and I am sick of being called Cindy once again. I think I will try Thia. I wonder how I am going to pull this one off?" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Aug 30, 2008: "I think it's a great name, I was called Cindy growing up but never liked it. Now I insist on Cynthia. The only nickname anyone gets away with is Thia. I don't mind that for some reason. One person can not get my name right at all and he calls me Cynthinee or sometimes Cynthinia. He tries though. I don't run into many people with the name anymore though." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Jan 08, 2008: "one of my friends is named cynthia. she's beautiful and i love the meaning of her name! personally, i think this is an extremely great name - it's feminine but not at all plain ." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jan 01, 2008: "My name is Cynthia. I've never gone by Cindy but I think it's a great nickname to have available. I've always loved my name, no one else had it so it's unique and there were no cruel nicknames in school (just for my last name in stead!) I also love the meaning of the name, I always thought that was a cool meaning." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Dec 31, 2007: "I am named Cynthia as well and I was also called Cindy as a kid and didn't like Cynthia. It only meant I was in trouble. Now as an adult I am referred to as Cynthia. My family and old friends as well call me Cindy still. Its kind of a time line when people greet me. If I am greeted as Cindy I know I met this person prior to college and vice versa." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Nov 28, 2007: "I am named Cynthia melissa. I always went by Cindy as a child and liked it but thought Cynthia sounded snooty. Now I really like Cynthia and introduce myself as that but I can't get a way from being Cindy when it comes to family and old friends." (Report as inappropriate)
