Cassandra hands down. Strong, beautiful, elegant…Seraphina is whiney and fragile and too many syllables. I also can’t help to think of triceratops

Seraphina. It’s one of my favorites.

I prefer Seraphina because I've never met one and would like to. Both names are nice, and I can see them working on sisters.Seraphina is fiery, adventurous, and free spirited.
Cassandra is mythological, tragic but strong (I like that she refused Apollo although it was awful that she got cursed for it)

That's tough, because I adore both names.Though, I have liked Cassandra longer than Seraphina, so I guess the former. I don't know why I like them, other than they're cool and looks pretty, I guess.

I prefer Cassandra, because it's been a favorite of mine for a while. I like the sound 'sandra' better than the 'fee' in Seraphina, and Seraphina just seems a little bit too frilly for me, in a way that the elegant but more down-to-earth Cassandra doesn't. I also absolutely adore the nickname Cassie - it's so cute but also classy and ages well.*

Cassandra. I just cannot take Seraphina seriously at all.

Cassandra more mainstream, pretty, feminine

Seraphina. More variety of nicknames, more ethereal. Cassandra has been overused (in comparison) and has a slightly dated vibe. More strong, less interesting.

I personally prefer Seraphina, but Cassandra is great in its own right but for different reasons. I think it depends on what you want in a name and The Impressions you want to give off from it. Seraphina to me feels more princessey, youthful and whimsical whereas Cassandra is more grounded in reality and a bit more mature, even motherly. Are you familiar with Disney's Enchanted? Seraphina is Giselle & Cassandra is Nancy.

Cassandra. It's one of my enduring favourites, I've liked it since I was very young. I can't really say why I like it so much, I just do.Seraphina is fine, but it's never been one of my favourites. I think I dislike the long 'fee' sound in it.
