Princess Florine is the main character in Madame d'Aulnoy's literary fairy tale, "The Blue Bird." It was first published in 1697, and an English translation was included in Andrew Lang's The Green Fairy Book.
Florine was my grandmother's name, and she went by Flo. She didn't really like her name though.

I actually really like the name Florine. Maybe because it's my good friend's name. You don't hear it too often, but I think it's pretty and sweet. To be honest, it doesn't really remind me of chlorine or fluoride...
Hm. I like this name, but it also sounds a bit like chlorine. I'm thinking of maybe using this name for a character of mine, whose name previously was Floella.
Florine is a pretty name. It's old enough to be classic, but it is definitely not boring. The fact that it sounds like "fluorine" shouldn't bother anyone -- just makes for a fun little pun when Florine is in high school chemistry. By then, I highly doubt she'll be ridiculed for it.
