Is Seline a good name for a girl?

[MrScorpio]

My wife wants to name our first daughter "Vaseline." I've already used my veto power on that. But then she pushes "Seline"...and mentioned that a "Seline" is like some hack Canuck songstress.

I don't kind of like that- but I'm not so sure about it, though. "Seline" is an awful lot like "Celine."

What do you think? Is "Seline" a good name for a girl?

1. "Vaselina" has more of a ring to it.

11. Cin cin, I most certainly agree...

2. It rhymes with "Feline" as in

the department store Feline's Basement or feline, like a cat. I wouldn't go there. But if your wife is into hack songstress' it could be worse. She might be pushing for Mariah!

3. It's better than Saline...

:shrug:

[salin]

5. but not quite as good as salin

though for the past three years even I haven't known how to pronounce the name!

10. Sal-in? Sailin'?

Sal-in works for me, but whatever fluffs your pillow...:)

[salin]

12. I thought "sail - in"

but heard it referred to as sal-in. And since it has no official enunciation (it is just a series of initials) - what the heck - I guess it is "sal-in" ... or whatever fluffs one's pillow :D

9. Like Seline Dion?

13. Good thinking on "Vaseline." Funny she'd get so attached to that one,

though.

Any special meaning it has you guys?

[MrScorpio]

19. Very

Oh yeah

[burrowowl]

14. If you are into the

Moon Goddess, whence tha name.
I prefer Ceres or Atremis myself or a great heroine: Antigone!

15. How about Selena?

As in Selena Kyle, the Catwoman...

I'd say nix to the Seline, though, for reasons already stated above.

16. How about Saline. She's salty. Got a mouth like a sailor, she does!

18. My Dad wanted to name me Cinnamon and call me Cindy. Luckily, Mom

vetoed it. Instead she gave him the middle name choice. I hate my middle name but at least all it is just my middle name.

Thanks, Mom!
