Thoughts? And suggestions for anything else similar?

Does Selena pass the prime minister test? 😀

Love it!

JauntyRedShoes · 11/02/2023 01:13

Prefer Sabrina or Serena.

MashedUpPotatoes · 11/02/2023 01:11

I like it. My sister is a Selina but she goes by Sally

everythingsapickle · 11/02/2023 00:59

I personally don’t like it, but there’s nothing particularly wrong with it!

xprincessxjanetx · 10/02/2023 23:47

I'm not keen, it just makes me think of Selena Gomez, which isn't necessarily a bad thing but a one off association doesn't tick boxes for me.

Luredbyapomegranate · 10/02/2023 22:42

I like

I probably like Serena or Saskia better, but they’re all nice. As are Sanchia, Susannah and Sabrina.

qwertyy1234 · 10/02/2023 19:40

I love serena and Sabrina x

TwoPointFourCatsAndDogs · 10/02/2023 19:39

Seren.

Bimblybomeyelash · 10/02/2023 19:36

It’s fine. I prefer celine.

Gardenerboo · 10/02/2023 19:19

They’re a better names out there. Many of them!

WinterFoxes · 10/02/2023 19:16

I prefer Serena. But Selina is OK. Not to my taste but definitely PM material ;)

MrsBunnyEars · 10/02/2023 19:13

I like it. Prefer Celeste though.

Odile13 · 10/02/2023 19:12

I like it a lot. Very pretty name and I’m surprised it isn’t used more often.

Teeshirt · 10/02/2023 19:08

Yes, it’s really nice. Definitely PM name. Not a teen mom name.

LulooLemon · 10/02/2023 19:03

I like it. I also like Serena.

Roselilly36 · 10/02/2023 19:01

I like it, seems a great choice to me.

emmathedilemma · 10/02/2023 18:58

Ooh it’s more teenage mom than prime minister for me! Sorry but you did ask.

SiobhanSharpe · 10/02/2023 17:54

Yes, it's a nice name and passes the PM test for me.

Purpletopaz42 · 10/02/2023 17:52

I really like Selina, it's a lovely name. Similar suggestions are Celine, Serena, Sienna, Sabrina.

LadyJ2023 · 10/02/2023 17:20

Sorry I don't like but hey we all different 🙂

Reclining · 10/02/2023 17:16

Love

PeekAtYou · 10/02/2023 17:13

Selina Scott's name sounded serious enough to me too

MissHavishamsMouldyOldCake · 10/02/2023 17:12

It's nice. Selena Gomez is probably giving the name more prominence, so wouldn't be surprised to see it increase in popularity.
