I too choose Lucy as my confirmation name- over 25 years ago! A long time ago, however i feel as though St Lucy has truly protected me in my life. I am always reminded of St Lucy as i have a beautiful niece named Lucy. St Lucy will protect and guide you in your lives, an excellent choice of confirmation name, good luck in all you do.
