I'm not fancy so the various other reasons for no:
Closet Close-et...that's how stupid people will pronounce the name. Other have given you wonderful options. go with one of them! I don't under stand this: 24601 reasons. Help (I'm not fancy; or culturally literate apparently) |

| Wow. I think this might be the worst name I've heard on DCUM. |

24601 is the prisoner number of one of the other main characters in the musical (Les Miserables). "Bring me prisoner 24601." etc. |

| Take pity on your child and don’t do it. Give her a solid name that she and others can pronounce and can spell, with no relationship to famous people or stories. Surely there is a family name you can use? |

| Catharine. Pronounce it the French way (ca-ta-reen) |

| Cosette, huh? Was your mom really into Les Mis? Kind of a crappy character to be named after. She couldn't name after someone with a happy ending? |

So maybe, technically a happy ending? But a lousy life. |

| Odette is better. Or Colette. |

| Name her Corinne. You're welcome. |

Odette is Swan Lake to me--doesn't avoid the reference issue. (Plus I think it's ugly). Colette is pretty. |

| I kind of like it and think it can transcend the musical. That said, my old neighbor had a dog named Cosette. |
