On my family tree, I came across a beautiful, unusual girl's name: Celindah.

Now, where can I get a baby girl?

It sounds like kitchen equipment

Is it pronouced how it sounds? I get something similar to Cylinder.

I would have thought more like Ce LIND a with the emphasis on the second syllable.

Cinderella

Is it pronounced with a soft or hard 'c'?

Seh-LIN-duh
Keh-LIN-duh
SEH-lin-duh
KEH-lin-duh

rather different!

FlamedToACrisp · 24/09/2019 16:15

I think it's like a cross between Celia and Linda, so Seh-LIN-duh.

Not sure if im pronouncing it right but it sounds like

calendar or collider to me .....

Thatsnotmymammoth · 24/09/2019 16:23

My first thought on saying it is that it sounds like cylinder.

@CatherineOfAragonsPrayerBook yup, I get cyclinder too.

Perhaps they couldn’t decide between Celia and Belinda?
