Dear Andy,
The Austrian spelling is given as "Cecina" in the postcards shown on the web
page that Peter indicated
http://bukowina.info/Cecina.html
and also here
http://picasaweb.google.com/Edward.Turr/Cecina#
I think that is fairly conclusive!

Subject: [Cz-L] Cecina
The returns are in on the spelling of our dear mountain, and I have to thank
and laud Czernowitzers who even in the autistic second Millennium are still
as responsive as folks were in the civilized, pre-WW II days.
2 for “Cecina,” the German version (by Mimi and Peter)
1 “Tzezinau” (by Herbie)
1 “Tzetzina” (by Lucca)
And a final, official word from Lillian Madfes who forwarded a photograph of
skiers next to a partly snow covered sign which showed the Romanian
spelling, “ţeţina.”
There was snow covering the sign after the final “a” so it isn’t absolutely
certain if there was a “u” after the “a” or not.
If anyone could find some public signage from the Austrian days then we
would have it all official for both the Austrian and Romanian periods.
Thanks again.
Andy Halmay
