[Opinions] my heart will go on
in reply to a message by Lily
Yeah, Celine Dion was my first association.
That said, I certainly don't think it's a bad name in itself, and the association isn't really a negative one either. (Well, I certainly don't think Celine Dion is a negative association -- she's a Canadian who sings love ballads. Pretty harmless if you ask me). I'm not sure if you could escape it, however.
I can't decide if I would go with Céline or Celine. Céline clarifies pronunciation, but there are quite a few diacritic-impaired Americans.
I have to admit prefer the somewhat similar Selene as it feels richer to me. Selene is dark chocolate and Celine is kind of a lighter, golden butterscotch. Both are tasty, but I prefer the dark chocolate.
