Torn between two girl names: Céleste (pronounced Ceeles) or Cézanne. Which name do you prefer?

    I don't like either name.
    Céleste (pronounced like you read it: cee-leste) looks nicer.
    And Cézanne seems too fussy to me.

    Céleste is pronounced as "celest" or "ceeleste". If you want the pronunciation "celes", I'd suggest considering a different spelling. Besides, I think Céleste (and how it's normally pronounced) is the most beautiful name. The other one I really don't find attractive.

    It's not really my taste either. I think Césare is nicer.

    Of these two, I think Cézanne is still okay.

    I would pronounce Céleste as cee-les-te.

    Cézanne I would actually pronounce as cee-zan-ne. Just like Suzanne is often su-zan-ne too.

    I don't think Cézanne is really beautiful. The option that was suggested, Césare, isn't either; it immediately reminds me of the Romans.

    I like Céleste, but only with the pronunciation Cee-lest or Cee-les-te.

    Celeste: pronounced Ce-lest and Cézanne: pronounced Ce-zan.
    Neither is my taste, but Ce-zan is nicer.
