[Opinions] Re: Coraline...

I hope you liked the book!
As Neil Gaiman is one of my favorite authors (my husband's too), we did make our daughter's middle name Coraline after his heroine. Obviously it does make us think instantly of the character, but for us it is a good thing. Our daughter is 5 years old, so she was named this before the film came out. And there was a little girl in the credits named Coraline as well!
We pronounce it as it is in the book (and now movie): Cor-a-line.
