What do you think of Celeste?

[hemispherekate]

What do you think of Celeste as a girl's name? I haven't put it to dp yet, out of curiosity I'd like to gauge public opinion first.

Love it!

Love it too!

You'd have to buy a complete set of Babar books - but you'll probably do that anyway. A very sweet name.

I like it.

Beautiful name I would have to comment on how lovely it is if I met a little girl called Celeste! It has a whimsical feel to it and I bet she wouldn't end up being one of many in her class!

Love it.

Very pretty but not in the vein of all the Daisys and Maisys out there at the moment.

I like it, and the meaning.

I know a grown up one - she is the loveliest lady you could imagine - great name.

I like it, but can't say it! Not easy to say with a lisp.

Name of a contraceptive pill - dodgey.

Pretty, but open to ridicule.

love it

It was my favourite, but is utterly ridiculous with our surname.
Please use it

I used to be on the pill. It was called cillest.

I love it! DH said "as in Daphne and Celeste?". I doubt many people think of a very short lived late 90's rubbish band.

I wish we'd chosen it as a middle name at least. I also like Celestine.

Love.
Although my first thought is 90's pop duo Daphene & Celeste.

Hons, well timed cross post!

Love it too

Very pretty

Beautiful, I remember reading a book as a little girl about a girl who joins a new school called Celeste it turns out she's an angel in the end it gave me rather an obsession with the name

I like it but does remind me of molest.

Love it :)

My absolute favourite and most beloved childhood teddy was a bunny called Celeste. She's still at my parent's house.
(she was pronounced the Italian way tho, - cheleste')

eek bad apostrophe!

I love it but it reminds me of cruel intentions.
