Re: Prefered pronounciation of Celeste
As a woman's name, this name was introduced into English speaking countries from France, and so seh-LEST is the most usual pronunciation, following the French name Céleste. "chel-es-tay" would approximate the pronunciation of the Italian name Celèste, which is used for both boys and girls in Italy.
