Serafina Jasmine?

I've been really stuck on Serafina. And I like this spelling as well. But pairing with a middle is hard for this name.

Serafina Jasmine kinda struck me but I dont usually like Jasmine all that much! Does this flow or are there other middles that work well?

Serafina Valentine is nice, and Iris. Can you choose a family name with meaning rather than just trying to pick one that sounds good?

Serafina Josephine

People may assume a connection to Serafina from His Dark Materials as played by Eva Green in the film www.radiotimes.com/news/tv/2019-12-01/his-dark-materials-serafina-pekkala-cast-ruta-gedmintas-bbc/

I'm not too worried about any pop culture references. I just love the sound and meaning of Serafina.

Jasmine is pretty but I questioned it which is why i posted. It does seem 90s and downmarket so that is why it's not totally connecting the dots for me.

I'm now between Serafina Evaine and Serafina Halle.

Everly too maybe? Eve by itself seems a but boring to me but its probably the one "filler" middle name I'm most open to because im not seeing it used as much as Rose or Mae at least

Vienne was also a thought.

I'm looking for suggestions of names that sound soft but are not overly common like Rose, Mae or Grace.

I have a little jasmine and we get complimented on her name all the time. She's at a top private school and we're hardly down market but hey each to their own!
I like the name serafina but I don't think it goes with jasmine as a second name maybe a one syllable name would be better?

Rachelhaydenberk1 · 19/02/2020 23:25

I like Jasmine as a first name because love the nickname Jazz. I just meant together - Serafina Jasmine. I'm not vibing with it fully even though it was an option because certain qualities work.

I actually like Jasmine, I'm with you OP that it's not a name I've ever given much thought to but it's quite nice

Rachelhaydenberk1 · 21/02/2020 04:10

I think I'm settling on Serafina Ever - which I'm not sure will be widely well received but I love it. I'm not sure why. I don't think I would love it on its own but together I just feel like this is the name.

I liked Evaine but worried it was a bit harsh sounding and I didn't like that the word Vain was in it as weird and picky as I know that is.

Then I thought about Everly which I do like with some names but for some reason with Serafina, Ever seems more complete instead of less complete. Serafina Ever - I just love it.

You seem pretty set but just in case, how about Seraphina Elise?

Rachelhaydenberk1 · 22/02/2020 00:52

Elise is the middle name of three different babies in my family. I love Elise but I worry its turned into a filler middle name.

How are you pronouncing Ever? Ee-ver?

ChanklyBore · 22/02/2020 01:26

What about Serafina Everly?

I like that.

Serafina Eva
Serafina Evangeline - I know that is a lot of letters but I think it’s lovely.

Or Serafina Cecile...

haplessharry · 22/02/2020 07:03

Josephine?

Scardanelli · 22/02/2020 07:39

Serafina Cecilia. Nice. (Esp. if Cecilia is pronounced the Italian way).

joffreyscoffees · 22/02/2020 07:43

I loved Seraphina when I was pregnant but decided it was too long and I couldn't think of a shortening that I was happy with either. DD ended up with a 4 letter name in the end!

If it was up to my mum she would have had Jasmine as a middle name too! I think it's too much with Serafina though.

Serapfina Grace is beautiful.

Sounds like a candle.
