What do you think of [name]Seraphine[/name] for a girl? [name]Do[/name] you prefer [name]Seraphine[/name] or [name]Seraphina[/name]?
[name]Do[/name] you prefer [name]Valentine[/name] (rhymes with wine) or [name]Seraphine[/name] (-een ending)?
I prefer [name]Seraphine[/name] to both [name]Seraphina[/name] and [name]Valentine[/name]. I think it’s very pretty, but it’s a tad celebrity baby-ish right now. However I’m not a fan of the nn [name]Sera[/name] which people always seem to want to reduce it too. I find [name]Sara[/name]/[name]Sarah[/name]/[name]Sera[/name] to be one of the most common and overused names on the planet, and it seems a shame to take a unique and beautiful name and make it plain and common. /slight tangent
[name]Seraphine[/name] and [name]Seraphina[/name] are both very pretty (I prefer [name]Seraphina[/name] myself), but I think they’re a mouthful on a newborn. Paired with the right middle, it could work; it just takes some fancy footwork. A friend (who has three kids, all of them with very long and elaborate names that are very abbreviated for nicknames) has a little [name]Seraphina[/name] [name]Guinevere[/name] who goes by [name]Sera[/name].
No love for [name]Valentine[/name]. Sorry.
It’s not really my style, but I much prefer the -een ending as it is softer, girlier, and more elegant [name]IMO[/name].
I [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Seraphine[/name]! It’s my favourite right now, actually.
I prefer [name]Seraphine[/name] to [name]Valentine[/name].
I wouldn’t call her [name]Sera[/name], but I like Seri quite a bit.
I don’t find it too celeb trendy, as far as I know [name]Ben[/name] Affleck has a [name]Seraphina[/name] but I’ve never heard of [name]Seraphine[/name] being used.
I agree that [name]Seraphina[/name] is a bit much and would likely get shortened. But I think [name]Seraphine[/name] works on its own.
Thanks for the replies so far! 
[name]Seraphine[/name]'s pretty but I prefer [name]Seraphina[/name].
[name]Seraphina[/name]/[name]Seraphine[/name] and [name]Valentina[/name]/[name]Valentine[/name] are favorites of mine! For first names, I like the -a versions better, but the French [name]Seraphine[/name] and [name]Valentine[/name] work wonderfully as middle names. [name]Both[/name] are under consideration for us as a middle for [name]Elizabeth[/name].
This is a tough one. I really like both [name]Seraphina[/name] and [name]Seraphine[/name]. I don’t think I could choose.
Not a huge fan of Velentine though, especially for a girl.
[name]How[/name] about [name]Delphine[/name]?
