What do you think of this name? Is it usable.

It's a beautiful name, unusual but definitely useable. Not by me though, it's too long and frilly for my naming style.

It's useable and nice but it's not my style.

Classic. Absolutely delightful.

Taught one a couple of years ago, she was known as Sephy.

I think it’s useable and quite nice as well.

She’s the chief witch from Philip Pullman’s Northern Lights. Seraphina Pekkala. Possibly Serafina.

I've always liked it. I know of one, so it does get used.

It's cute!

VenusClapTrap · 07/10/2020 22:33

Too frilly for me. I know one - it doesn’t suit her at all.

Cheeseycheeseycheesecheese · 07/10/2020 22:32

Beautiful name, I went to school with one. She was known as Phi and Seri

It's very pretty. I have met an 8 yr old Seraphina, it was no different to saying Isabella, just not as prolific.

Séraphine is also an option.

itsjakeandamy · 07/10/2020 22:28

I think it's usable.
It's a bit flowery for me and I prefer Seraphine but it's certainly usable

Changethetoner · 07/10/2020 22:21

hmmm it's a bit long and a bit fancy, and is it a disney princess?
Personally I'd not. Maybe consider Josephine? It's long but is actually one less syllable.

or Sophie. has similar sounds.
