Hey everyone!!! [name_u]Celeste[/name_u] is one of those names that drifted in and out of my brain for years. I think it’s gorgeous, elegant, and regal. It makes me think of starry, summer nights. It’s also the title of one of my favorite songs (by Donovan.) Still, there’s a part of me that still worries it seems too childish.
I haven’t been able to find many middles for it either. So far, I have
[name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] (my fav)
[name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_f]Helena[/name_f]
[name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] (too boring?)
I’ve also struggled to make sibsets. I tend to like older names, so [name_u]Celeste[/name_u] feels like an outlier among Beatrice’s and Raymond’s.
Currently on my short list, I have
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] (Beatrix)
[name_f]Victoria[/name_f]
[name_f]Josephine[/name_f]
[name_f]Louisa[/name_f]
[name_f]Clara[/name_f]
[name_f]Irene[/name_f] (eye-reen)
[name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_m]Raymond[/name_m]
[name_m]Samuel[/name_m]
[name_u]Miles[/name_u]
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m]
Any thoughts and feedback is greatly appreciated!!!

[name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] is lovely!
I’ll also suggest: [name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_f]Annabel[/name_f], [name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_f]Matilda[/name_f], [name_u]Celeste[/name_u] Isabelle/Isobel, [name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_f]Daphne[/name_f], [name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_f]Maude[/name_f], [name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_f]Henrietta[/name_f]

[name_u]Celeste[/name_u] and [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] (elegant and pretty)
[name_u]Celeste[/name_u] and [name_u]Miles[/name_u] (stylish and a little off beat)
[name_u]Celeste[/name_u] and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] (both well established and traditional, but also feel modern and fresh)
[name_u]Celeste[/name_u], [name_m]Raymond[/name_m] and [name_f]Irene[/name_f] (clunky-cute and unexpected)
[name_u]Celeste[/name_u], [name_u]Miles[/name_u] and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m]

[name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] is dreamy such a lovely name that honestly makes your heart sing 
Honestly [name_u]Celeste[/name_u] feels very sophisticated, elegant and starry. The opposite of childish. I also think [name_u]Celeste[/name_u] works wonders with [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f], [name_f]Pearl[/name_f], [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] & [name_u]Miles[/name_u]. Regarding [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] she’s such a stable classic never too boring but I agree I wouldn’t naturally put them together. However I think [name_f]Helena[/name_f] is beautiful as both a middle name for [name_u]Celeste[/name_u] and a sister name for her.
You’ve had some lovely ideas so count any repeats as me being in agreement with the berries
[name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]
[name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_f]Millicent[/name_f]
[name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_f]Winifred[/name_f]
[name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_f]Rosamund[/name_f]
[name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_f]Dorothea[/name_f]
[name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_u]Romilly[/name_u]
[name_f]Sister[/name_f] names: [name_f]Ramona[/name_f], [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f], [name_f]Stella[/name_f], [name_f]Eloise[/name_f], [name_u]Blythe[/name_u] and [name_f]Felicity[/name_f]
Brother names: [name_u]Jasper[/name_u], [name_m]Hugo[/name_m], [name_m]Felix[/name_m], [name_u]Gabriel[/name_u], [name_m]Solomon[/name_m] and [name_m]Linus[/name_m]

I don’t think it is childish, and is rather very sophisticated and whimsical. [name_f]My[/name_f] favourites are [name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] and [name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] (that I don’t find boring). Beatrice/Beatrix, [name_f]Irene[/name_f], [name_m]Samuel[/name_m], [name_u]Miles[/name_u] & [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] are good sibling names for her.
