I’ve got a long way to go but I like thinking of names!
This will be my rainbow baby after 3 years of ivf and two losses which made me think of “arc en ciel” (rainbow in french, ciel on its own is sky).
Do you think it’s a bit too out there? I thought it could be quite pretty, I imagine DH will hate it 😂

How do you pronounce it? Is it See-el? Possibly too much like seal if it is.

Ah snap!

You will get people not sure how to pronounce it.

How do you pronounce it?

KneelJustKneel · 23/04/2019 19:08

Is it pronounced "seal?"

I think it looks pretty but reminds me of the lidl alternate names for products they sell.

I was going to say, isn’t it a brand of budget skincare?

FiremanKing · 23/04/2019 19:07

It reminds me of the toiletries brand Cien in Lidl.
