Nameberry of the Day: Celine
March 30
French Canadian singer Céline Marie Claudette Dion was born on March 30, 1968.
One of the most widely-known singers across the world, Celine’s powerful voice and technical skills have earned her the title “Queen of Power Ballads”.
Celine is a French girl’s name that means “heavenly”. Popularized by Dion herself, the name first charted in the US in 1994 and has ranked ever since. In the last few years, Celine has been experiencing an upswing, now sitting at its highest ever at #324.
The recent attention to Celine may also be attributed to the rising popularity of a French luxury fashion brand by that name.
In Sweden and Norway, Celine has made the Top 50 in recent years, and the name also ranks in England and Germany.
While also a celestial name, identical sounding Greek Selene has separate roots meaning “moon goddess”. Either spelling is equally lovely and feels sleek and stylish in 2024.
