Baby girl names - Celine

[mommyandmore]

Hello! We've been having a hard time naming DD2 - We live in London and finding the process so difficult.
DH likes Robyn - I don't mind this but don't love it either.
I like Celine & possibly Clara.
DD1 is Isla - I don't mind if their names don't 'match' as such but really want a pretty, elegant but not too twee name for our new addition.
Celine has really been growing on me recently as it's not overly popular (apart from Ms Dion obvs!) and I like the option of CeCe when she's little.

Thanks if you've got this far and please feel free to give your thoughts!
Have a great day! ☀️

I like Celine. It's pretty anf underused but known. Good choice IMO

First time you hear it you think Dion.

Bust actually after saying it a few times it does become a really nice name.

One the name is attached to a girl, the Dion reference will disappear.

I like both Robyn and Celine. But it doesn't sound like your husband is sold on Celine?

What about Celeste, Colette, Corinne, Camille, Coraline, Delphine, Rowan, Marissa, Marcella, Marcelline, Marina, Nadine

It’s objectively a nice name but I think I’d get fed up of having Celine Dion songs sung at me if it was my name! How about Selena?

Isla and Clara sound brilliant together to me. I also really like Robyn.

I like Celine, Clara is lovely too but Isla and Clara sound a bit too matchy

I don't like Robyn for a girl personally

Celine is lovely but Cece is ridiculous. Why can’t children be called by that actual names anymore?

Cece is lovely as a nn when small.

I've been thinking about this and I don't think any kids will think of Celine Dion, she isn't relevant now.

Celine is great. Very strong and lovely with Isla.

Celine is lovely! Elegant even, and CeCe is a cute n n too!

I'm not keen on Celine and Cece is awful

Love it. Similar vibes

Celina/selena
Marcelline
Cecellia
Cilla

I mean Celine is fine. It’s a French name and could be worse. But why do young British mothers have to treat their children like dogs and give them silly nicknames

I think it's a beautiful name. Cece reminds me of Cece Bloom in Beaches. I'm of an age when I think "Celine Dion", but I don't think that's a bad thing, you're not thinking of calling her Myra...

@Notgivenuphope , I don't see why there's sucjh a need for 'nicknames', especially a 2-syllable one for a 2-syllable name.

Robin, which is how I'd spell it, is my favourite girl's name, so I'm biased, but Celine is lovely too. Very elegant.

I think Celine is beautiful and quite unusual so that's good. Any "connection" to CD will soon be forgotten and irrelevant to dd's peers. I adore CeCe as a shortened version.

Clara is nice enough b I don't really like Robyn - although I think it could grow on me. Lifetime of being called Rob though?!

I adore Celine and Celia/Cecily/Celina

Also Delphine?

To be pedantic it should be Céline. The accent changes the pronunciation.

Celine is lovely. My DCs know 2 between them (one has French heritage) so it seems to be in use but definitely not overused. Unlike some PPs Ms Dion did not cross my mind.

It would definitely get my vote over Robyn.

Celine is lovely - reminds me of the Richard Linklater 'Before...' films with Julie Delpy.

Cece is very American (though I probably think that as I know an American couple with a daughter called CeCe) - I'd probably shorten it to Line (pronounced Leena) myself.

Celine is lovely OP

Cecila
Caroline
Romy
Chloe

Celine is fab, v elegant. People will know it but it isn’t overused. Would be a great choice as long as you’re both on board!
