Celina or Serena?

[Greekmythology]

We absolutely love these names but cannot decide between the two! DH loves Serena and I love Celina! I love the moon goddess and heaven association to the name... I also like Serena as a second option, for DH it’s the other way round, Serena first option and then Celina.
What associations do you have to these names and which one is your favourite?

Serena is classy, Celina is trashy!

Celina seems dated and Serena just really beautiful and ethereal, I really love Serena

Sorry, Celina reminds me of Semolina and everything beginning with ‘cel’. Serena is lovely.

They sound so similar, I would go for Serena. Please don't underestimate the pain that is having to spell out your name every single time you have to give it to someone.

Celina reminds me of semolina - always has

I prefer Serena. It somehow feels more substantial.

Serena.
Ciena/Sienna?

I had Serena and Celine on my shortlist.

I was put off Celine when I imagined another British kid yelling “Sleen!” across the playground. Celina works better in the UK, I think. I love the meaning.

As much as I love Serena, I’m glad I didn’t go for it in the end as DD, bless her, isn’t a particularly serene character.

But both names are beautiful, so either way, you can’t go far wrong.

I like Celine better than Celina.

Serena is gorgeous! Both good thogh I think.

[Marlena1]

Though!

Did you think of Céline? Or Celine without the accent to make it easier. It’s a beautiful French name.
I would pick that, otherwise Serena as Celina seems a bit made up, not quite right
