What do you think of this heavenly name?

[Springbankholiday]

Celina?

Also what do you think of the spellings
Selina
Selena

I like the moon & heavenly meanings equally. I slightly prefer Celina because I think it’s prettier. Thoughts?

It’s a nice name.

I think Selena is probably the auto-spelling so would be easiest, followed by Celina.

Selena is nicer

I also like Cassie - Cassiopeia if you like a c / celestial name

Beautiful.
I prefer the Selena spelling.
Celina reminds me of Celine Dion.

I think it’s a nice name but prefer the spelling Selena because Celina looks a bit like ceiling

Nice. I prefer Selena as a spelling, otherwise I just think of Celine Dion. I do prefer Serena though. Also Seren (welsh for star), Phoebe (associated with the moon), and Lyra is also lovely - a constellation I believe.

I prefer Selina. Celina reminds me of Celine (Dion).

Prefer Selena , as that's closer to the classical roots and just looks 'right' to me.

But Selina Scott didn't spell it like that, and I think she remains best known person of that name.

I don't like the spelling Celina, no good reason, just looks wrong

@AuntieStella I think Selena Gomez is probably better known than Selina Scott?

Who is Selena Gomez?

Not teasing, I've really never heard of her!

Nice but use S not C as people will find it challenging ...

I don't think anyone but you will know what the 'meaning' of a name is, so go for one you like as a name.

Selena is alright. I'd spell it with an S rather than a C as I think that is how it is 'expected' to be spelled

(I have no idea who Selena Gomez is either)

I don’t associate Selena with the heavens. Not like I would Celeste.

Selena Gomez is an American pop singer and actress. She’s had a couple of top 10 hits in the U.K. and been in various things, I think she started out on the Disney channel.

I would say Selena Gomez is probably roughly as famous as Justin Bieber? And known to/popular with the same sort of demographic.

I've never heard of Selina Scott. Maybe it's an age thing as I have heard of Selena Gomez

Celina is beautiful! Only ever met lovely ones too

Thanks everyone! Really love Celina over Selena though although I understand where you’re all coming from. Selena just looks like too many e’s! And I like prefer C names over S names, cannot explain why, I have no idea! Sometimes Celina does look a bit cold though if that makes sense. If this sounds ridiculous, then maybe my hormones are all over the place! Haha.

I think Selina is the most traditional spelling in English, but Celina is fine.

I'd say Selina is the traditional British spelling, I know one. Like ti lots

Not Celina, sounds like a car! And wrong. And as if you meant Celia.

I get what you mean about the letter though. How about Celia/Clelia/Cecilia?

I like Celina, but if you really want to go for it Celestina or Celestia are even more heavenly.

We liked it and considered it and also prefer Celina too.

Celina is my middle name. I really like it. Go for it! 😉

Thanks everyone! Still not convinced that we should rule out Celina - is this spelling really that bad? @YoniAndGuy which car is it? I’ve never heard of it

She will be forever correcting people’s spelling of her name as most will go straight to the s first letter.

However, it is easy to pronounce which is good. It is a nice name, does well in all situations from cute baby up to boardroom.

I love Cassie, either as a diminutive of Cassandra or as a stand a lone.
