Clementine. I think it sounds and looks nicer than Euphemie.

Clemetine. It's clearer, and would be easier to pronouce than Euphemie for some people.

Euphémie for a woman, Clémentine for a little girl.

As a reader, I'd probably respond better to Clementine, as I would become a little confused by Euphemie, and either just skip over the name while reading it, or just mentally give her a new name...that is, if I weren't a name freak and look it up here...I'm speaking from a "non-name-nerd" point of view. :) I'd also think of the word emphysema.So, Clementine gets my vote, but I don't care for either name, personally.

Euphemie is more interesting, but Clementine is stronger. Overall, I think I prefer Clementine. If I could choose alternate forms, I really like Clementina :-)_____________________________________________________________________"Dream like you'll live forever. Live like you'll die today."Elinor
