Celestine

I am 99.9% sure this will be my daughter’s name, so I was hoping for last minute feedback. Please be brutally honest in your responses, I honestly don’t mind criticism of the name. The middle names will be [name_f]Martha[/name_f] and [name_f]Willa[/name_f], but I’m not yet sure of the order.

By the way, which flows better: [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] [name_f]Willa[/name_f] [name_f]Martha[/name_f] or [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] [name_f]Martha[/name_f] [name_f]Willa[/name_f]?

[name_f]Celie[/name_f], [name_f]Celia[/name_f], Esse and [name_f]Cece[/name_f] are all possible nicknames and quite possibly others that will come to me when she is here.

Thank you!

I like it. I know a young girl named [name_f]Celeste[/name_f], but I think I kind of prefer [name_f]Celestine[/name_f]. It is sweet and soft, but unexpected. I love [name_f]Essie[/name_f].

Good choice, go for it!

I think the flow is pretty even. I would put the mn you want to be used more first, as the second one is often dropped in many day to day cases.

I love [name_f]Celestine[/name_f]. It has an undeniable charm and class while still being unique and feminine.

I prefer [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] [name_f]Willa[/name_f] [name_f]Martha[/name_f]. I also think Esse and [name_f]Cece[/name_f] are adorable nicknames.

I like the flow of [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] [name_f]Willa[/name_f] [name_f]Martha[/name_f] best.

[name_u]Love[/name_u] this name!

Hmm, I actually prefer [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] [name_f]Martha[/name_f] [name_f]Willa[/name_f]. It’s a beautiful name, good choice!

I love [name_f]Celestine[/name_f]! So elegant and unique. I like [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] [name_f]Willa[/name_f] [name_f]Martha[/name_f] the best :slight_smile:

I like [name_f]Willa[/name_f] [name_f]Martha[/name_f]

I love [name_f]Celestine[/name_f]! I’d go [name_f]Willa[/name_f] [name_f]Martha[/name_f] too.

I don’t know any [name_f]Celestine[/name_f], but I do know a 19 year-old [name_f]Celeste[/name_f] who is independent, loyal and, yes, funny. I can picture your [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] as a sweet but strong girl. I do love [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] [name_f]Willa[/name_f] [name_f]Martha[/name_f]. It flows very nicely.

Gorgeous name! I like [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] [name_f]Willa[/name_f] [name_f]Martha[/name_f] too

[name_f]Celestine[/name_f] is lovely! I think the middle name arrangement depends on your last name. For something one syllable, like [name_m]Stone[/name_m], I prefer [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] [name_f]Martha[/name_f] [name_f]Willa[/name_f] [name_m]Stone[/name_m]. For a longer surname, like [name_u]Emerson[/name_u], I prefer [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] [name_f]Willa[/name_f] [name_f]Martha[/name_f] [name_u]Emerson[/name_u].

I think [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] in a great choice! I had it on my list for my daughter’s middle name and even though we’re not using it (we ended up going with an honor name instead), but I still feel very warmly toward it.

I’m not sure how you prn it. Is it [name_f]Celeste[/name_f] teen or sell us teen?

To be honest I used to find the name [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] kind of boring, but I’ve since grown to love it! So sparkly.

I prefer [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] [name_f]Willa[/name_f] [name_f]Martha[/name_f].

I know a [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] and she’s a delightful woman! She goes by Celly, which suits her, but your nickname options are all very nice too. Great choice!

As far as your full name options, I’m not sure one flows better than another since both middles are two syllables and end in a. I’d say [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] [name_f]Martha[/name_f] [name_f]Willa[/name_f], maybe just to spread out the L sounds in Cel and [name_m]Will[/name_m] a bit more, but honestly, either one is good.

I’m so happy that [name_f]Celestine[/name_f] has been receiving so much love! It’s quite daring a choice for me actually. I know it will still take some time to get used to for my parents but my sons are very happy with it as they love [name_m]Ernest[/name_m] and [name_f]Celestine[/name_f]. I guess the order of the middle names doesn’t matter too much for me as my surname is two syllable beginning with a and ending in s, so I will try and make a poll with my family and friends as to which order they prefer. Thank you all very much!

Yes, my dad said the same thing. I might put [name_f]Martha[/name_f] first as she’s an honor name. I’m having second thoughts on [name_f]Willa[/name_f] though, I do love her very much, but I feel like it would be an important statement to also honor my daughter with my stepmother’s name as well…
