Seraphina or China? Opinions?

[apreciousbabygirl]

Which one would be your choice out of Seraphina or China?
Honestly are these a bit too way out or do you think they are acceptable to use as first names?

Well, if you need to ask whether they are a bit too way out .....

Although I would never call my own child it, I don't think Seraphina is that way out.

China, on the other hand...

Seraphina hands down.

Seraphina is Ok (too fancy for my taste though) but China is dreadful.

sorry, definitely no to China
Seraphina is better but yes a teeny bit pretentious IMO. How about Serena, Selena, Josephine..?

she would go through life fielding jokes about plates. It's a pretty word but not the most amazing of places either

Seraphina is quite pretty. Does it have a meaning? Think China sounds like a made up model name or a popstar!

seraphina means angel or cherub, I suppose, it's from the word seraphim

[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seraph here]

sorry here

I think I do prefer Seraphina to China myself actually, I didn't know it had a meaning behind it but it's good that it's a nice one

The only China I know is Chyna Parks from the Disney Channel programme ANT Farm.

Do you have any links with China?

Seraphina is quite pretty.
I did think it was a Disney princess although on Googling actually Princess Seraphina seems to have been the first recorded drag queen

China is not so good unless you have a Chinese connection and then it's more of a middle name IMO.

China is ok but she would have annoying people calling her chinadoll or chinaplate or chink(yes i think that would happen)
India might be better if you would like to name your dd after an Asian country.
Seraphina is lovely.

I know a Seraphina. Don't like it, though. I've never heard China used as a name, it's awful.

I really don't like China as a name (or India, Texas, etc), but Seraphina is nice.

I suppose it's better than Harlow

Seraphina is very pretty - but odd on a chubby, active not at all gentle toddler (ie most toddlers)

Not keen on China.

Sorry China is dreadful, Seraphina is ok

Seraphina is about much in my opinion and China just makes me get all T'Pau!!!!

The only China I know is a man.

China is bizarre.

Seraphina is better, far too frilly for my tastes though.

Seraphina is lovely,china is awful.

Seraphina is lovely. China is, for me, in the same bracket as Chardonnay, Maddison, Armani etc
