Re: Coraline
in reply to a message by Sadie-Janae
I haven't seen the movie, but I've heard that Neil Gaiman wrote Coraline as a typo for Caroline, and liked the look of it. Does that mean that Coraline rhymes with Caroline? Or is it Coraleen?
It makes me think of a textile, perhaps dress material or curtaining. I far prefer either Caroline or Coralie.
Georgiana is inconveniently long, however it's pronounced. Lots of people seem to say it like jorJANEa, which makes no sense. Georgina is much less fussy; I could see Georgina Coralie, or Coralie Georgina, or the same but with Caroline instead of Coralie.
Not much help, I'm afraid!
