I would love to know your impressions of [name]Serafine[/name] and [name]Clarissa[/name]. These names are my favorites right now. Any suggestions for other names I might like? Thanks for your thoughts!
I really love [name]Serafine[/name], it’s beautiful and classy. It’s also much less recognized and popular than [name]Seraphina[/name]/[name]Serafina[/name], which is definitely a plus for me. I’m not really a fan of the name [name]Clarissa[/name], though. It lacks personality [name]IMO[/name].
I think you might like:

I love love love the name [name]Serafine[/name] ( but slightly prefer spelling [name]Seraphine[/name]). I find it more substantial and sophisticated than [name]Serafina[/name]/[name]Seraphina[/name]. So it would transition better from childhood to adulthood. [name]Clarissa[/name] feels very light, young, and innocent to me. And reminds me of 80’s style names like [name]Melissa[/name], so not a fan.
I love the name [name]Clarissa[/name] – probably because I love [name]Claire[/name], [name]Clara[/name], and the prettiness of “issa” as in [name]Marissa[/name] and [name]Larissa[/name]. Therefore, [name]Clarissa[/name] strikes me as really beautiful. I used to feel that the name [name]Seraphina[/name]/[name]Serafina[/name] was too sugary sweet for my taste (like sprinkling sugar on top of honey), but I have now begun to warm up to the name. I do think [name]Serafine[/name] is a nice and less sugary version, but I prefer the spelling [name]Seraphine[/name]. The “[name]Serafine[/name]” spelling makes the word “fine” jump out at me, which then makes me want to pronounce it “[name]Sera[/name]-fine” instead of “[name]Sera[/name]-feen,” the latter, of course, being correct.
So, my vote is for [name]Clarissa[/name].
I love [name]Seraphine[/name], prefer this spelling to [name]Serafine[/name] as I’m afraid everyone will say ‘fine’ instead of ‘finn’ or ‘fee-neh’ depending on your choice of prn. But still prefer [name]Serafine[/name] to [name]Clarissa[/name]. They have totally different feel, [name]Clarissa[/name] just seems Victorian to me, musty and straight-laced, where [name]Serafine[/name] seems lighter, prettier and more magical.
I love love love the name [name]Seraphine[/name] as its my eldest daughters names. I definetely prefer the [name]Seraphine[/name] spelling as thats how we spell it, haha! [name]Clarissa[/name] is a lovely name but its just not my style. I obviously prefer [name]Seraphine[/name] but both names are stunning!

I strongly prefer the [name]Seraphine[/name] spelling. I think it’s prettier that way.
I like [name]Clarissa[/name], mostly influenced by the only [name]Clarissa[/name] I know in real life (My childhood friend, she’s great and very, very clever). So then I like [name]Clarissa[/name]. The name itself is also pretty, combining the appeal of [name]Clara[/name] and [name]Larissa[/name].
i like them both but prefer [name]Clarissa[/name] little more. i love [name]Seraphina[/name] more.
