Isn't this an oxymoron?


I agree, any "quirky hipster name" practically by definition is going to be a generational marker for your daughter all her life, just like Nancy, Barbara, and Susan are for Boomer women.

If you actually just want your DD to have a unique name that no one else will have, go with Susanna, which hasn't been in the top 1000 in several years.

I wouldn't know how to pronounce it and then would probably say Sell-ah.

I like Sabrina, Seline, and Samantha.

It's a biblical reference and and a song by Lauryn Hill (also her daughter's name - Bob Marley's granddaughter).

I would probably think it's pronounced SEEla like the actress Sela Ward - it's nice though.

Simone is my favorite S name.

It will always be mispronounced and perhaps misspelled. If you're ok with that, go for it.

I would pronounce Selah the same was a Sela. Seel-ah. Not Say-la. Just FYI.

It's a cute name.
