We're only ttc at the moment and is to go with sibling Eliza (not Elizabeth).
Also which of the pronunciations is most popular do you think? Is it getting more popular? as we've met a couple of young Clementines recently.

Boys name is already decided and would be Louis.

The song was about clementine Churchill wasn't it?
I really like it and love Clemmie as a nick name.

I thought the song was much earlier than Churchill??

I want to use Clementyne, but I don't know now. How do people pronounce the fruit? I say tyne too, wouldn't that be the same?

Clemency is a name I haven't heard of before. Interesting.

I'd pronounce the name Clemen-tyne, and I'd pronounce the fruit the same way. Clemency is lovely too.

I prefer Clementina ('teena').

It is a pretty name, but Clem / Clemmy is vile. Agree with the clammy/pleghmy vibes!

Clemency is just so beautiful and has such a beautiful meaning :)

I'm voting this name of the week though, I've never seen so many threads about one name!
