Serena or Sienna?

Girl Names
1

[name]Both[/name] are related to [name]Italy[/name] in someway, so that makes them just flawlessly wonderful to me. Lol.

[name]Serena[/name]'s commonly used in [name]Italy[/name] apparently, and [name]Sienna[/name] is a place name ([name]Siena[/name] is a Tuscan city).
I’m not sure which I love more though!

Big sister will definitely be an [name]Alessandra[/name] ([name]Alessandra[/name] [name]Chloe[/name]), so that’s something to keep in mind. Big brother will likely be a [name]Nathaniel[/name] ([name]Nathaniel[/name] [name]Cole[/name]/Kol).

Thoughts? Middle name ideas?

I love [name]Serena[/name]! It’s just so sweet and serene to me, haha. It was a serious contender for my top 10 this last time around, but I just had too many names to choose from! I still love seeing others consider it, though. [name]Sienna[/name] is nice, but I can’t help but think of the van, and [name]Sierra[/name] just sounds sweeter to me.

What about:

[name]Serena[/name] [name]Felicity[/name]
[name]Serena[/name] [name]Ruby[/name]
[name]Serena[/name] [name]Juliet[/name]
[name]Serena[/name] [name]Kate[/name]
[name]Serena[/name] [name]Pearl[/name]
[name]Serena[/name] [name]Olive[/name]
[name]Serena[/name] [name]Tess[/name]
[name]Serena[/name] [name]Ivy[/name]
[name]Serena[/name] [name]Violet[/name]
[name]Serena[/name] [name]Rachel[/name]
[name]Serena[/name] [name]Elodie[/name] (or [name]Serena[/name] [name]Melody[/name]? Or are you saving [name]Melody[/name] for you?)
[name]Serena[/name] [name]Charlotte[/name]
[name]Serena[/name] [name]Claire[/name]
[name]Serena[/name] [name]Daphne[/name]

Good luck!

Oooh, I like [name]Serena[/name] [name]Juliet[/name], [name]Serena[/name] [name]Elodie[/name], [name]Serena[/name] [name]Melody[/name] ([name]Melody[/name] is still just an idea for myself, so it’s flexible at this point), [name]Serena[/name] [name]Charlotte[/name], and [name]Serena[/name] [name]Claire[/name].

The mentions of [name]Kate[/name] and [name]Elodie[/name] made me think of [name]Serena[/name] [name]Katherine[/name], and [name]Serena[/name] [name]Eloise[/name].

4

[name]Serena[/name] for sure. [name]Sienna[/name] sounds trendy to me. [name]Serena[/name] also go better with [name]Alessandra[/name].

5

Oooh, I love [name]Serena[/name] [name]Eloise[/name]!

6

Def. [name]Serena[/name]! It’s elegant and beautiful.

[name]Sienna[/name] is lovely, but it’s in that same vein of trendiness as [name]Savannah[/name] and [name]Sierra[/name] in my area.

7

Thanks for the replies! I find it interesting that [name]Sienna[/name] is viewed as trendy, and [name]Serena[/name] isn’t at all.
I’d have thought due to the Gossip Girl reference it might be seen as more trendy.

@ashthedreamer [name]Eloise[/name] is becoming a fast favourite of mine for the middle name spot. It might even replace [name]Charlotte[/name].

8

[name]Serena[/name] is lovely. [name]Sienna[/name], to me, is a car and a crayon. And [name]Serena[/name] [name]Eloise[/name] is gorgeous!

9

Maybe it’s because [name]Sienna[/name] has nearly double the popularity (if not more) than [name]Serena[/name] has? I don’t know–Gossip Girl is out there, but I haven’t heard about it for a while, haha. I always thought it was a refreshing choice whenever I heard people talking about the show, too.

10

Oh does it? I hadn’t realized.
Mhm! The show has some really nice name choices on it.

11

I prefer [name]Sienna[/name]. There is an adult actress by the name [name]Sienna[/name] [name]Miller[/name], so it’s not a new name. I like [name]Serena[/name] okay, but prefer [name]Serenity[/name].

12

[name]Sienna[/name] for me is the best of the two, I have a good association with the name, and I prefer the sound.

13

[name]Serena[/name] [name]Eloise[/name] and [name]Serena[/name] [name]Elodie[/name] are both SO cute! :smiley:

14

I think [name]Serena[/name] goes best with your sibnames, and I think it’s a more classic and timeless name than [name]Sienna[/name], which to me seems quite trendy at the moment.

15

I like [name]Sienna[/name]. Have you thought about [name]Sicily[/name]? Italian and S name as well

16

I prefer [name]Sienna[/name], I don’t see the appeal of [name]Serena[/name]. Maybe its just my accent but it sounds awful to me.

17

I like [name]Serena[/name] a lot more than [name]Sienna[/name] - again [name]Sienna[/name] feels a bit trendy to me, more so than [name]Serena[/name] but then [name]Serena[/name] seems to have a more established reputation - though still sounds like a name that’s only been popular since the 90’s and not sure I like that.

Really like the Welsh favourite [name]Seren[/name] for a fresher take on it

18

[name]Sicily[/name] is nms at all. But thanks for the suggestion!

19

I really like both, but since [name]Alessandra[/name] is a traditional Italian name, I think [name]Serena[/name] would fit better. Also, [name]Sienna[/name] is kinda common and [name]Serena[/name] much less so.

20

I adore [name]Alessandra[/name]! And I think [name]Serena[/name] is pretty and matches it better than [name]Sienna[/name].
