Re: Thoughts on Serafina
in reply to a message by Serafina Starstrider
I like Serafina. I think Seraphina has had some attention since it's a celebrity baby name and Serafina has been forgotten about. I find it less OTT and princessy than Seraphina.
There is also a character in Looking for Alibrandi named Serafina "Sera". That was where I first encountered the name.
I would rather see Serafina than Dante, on either gender.
I think Serafina goes well with Arthur but not Keiran. Keiran I get a completely different vibe from. I also grew up with a bunch of Keirans so I don't see it as being as exotic or intriguing as Serafina and to some extent Arthur. Keira on the other hand goes quite nicely with Serafina.
I think you can get away with using Serafina without the particular ethnic background.
And I like Sera for a nickname, and then Fina. :)
