I like Selena best. I just have to ask... and this is nosy... but am I doing really bad math or were your kids born just 4 months apart? I feel like pregnancy brain may be making me dumb.

Yes, you are correct...they are 4 months apart.  I gave birth to my DS and adopted my DD.  I get a lot of confused looks when I tell people they are 4 months apart...most of the time I just say they are twins because it's easier than expaining.  Don't feel bad for asking...I don't mind answering on here.

I clicked on Selena.

 

Celina is a town in Texas - not that it's bad at all, in fact it's got a back that Bonnie and Clyde knocked over - but it's pronounced su-line-uh (line to rhyme to with fine) and your child might be constantly correcting people.

I didn't click on anything, because although I've only seen it spelled Selena, I like the spelling Celina. And I'm not one to play with spellings.

I highly doubt this would happen throughout the rest of the country.

It wouldn't be playing w/ spellings... Celina is an actual name.

I clicked Selena, but Celina is also acceptable.  Salina changes the meaning from moon to salt, I think.

I voted other because I know two people with that name. One is my best friend and she spells it Selina. The other is my DH's God-Daughter and her name is spelled Celina. I think either of those spellings is fine!

It seems to me that Selena would be pronounced Se [LEH] na. While Celina would be pronounced Se [LEE] na. I like both of these.
