What do you think?
Chic or Dion?

Suggest Celina?

I do think of Dion but that probably won't happen in future as she's getting on now. She's a legend though, so I would use it. I love that name, very beautiful, elegant. I also love Selina.

Thanks all.

I like short classic names that tend to end in N or NE;
Céline
Joan/Jane (I know these are divisive but I’ve always thought they were extremely cool and 60s)
Suzanne (but not ‘Susan’)

@gotelltheoldmandowntheroad makes a good point that Dion is a legend anyway😆

I like Celine. It's elegant. I also like Selina/Selena. I'd also suggest Colette, Karine and Corinne.

I don't think Celine Dion is (a) a negative association or (b) relevant to the current generation of kids. I would be surprised if they know who she is, to be honest.

Op, did you go with Celine in the end?

Moonflower12 · 16/08/2022 11:44

My DD's middle name is Selene as chosen by my DP. I love it.

I’m still very early stages of pregnancy. Husband wanted this name for our first child but we had a boy.
I wasn’t sure about the name first time around but I love it now!

I love Joan (and quite like Jane) too :) All great choices!
