Personal experiences with the name Celeste: | Edit

When I was little, how I hated my name! No one else had it and no one seemed to know how to spell it. But most other people commented that it was very pretty. I think it's a name you definitely can grow into. I did. I absolutely love it now.

I always loved the name Celeste! It means heavenly and is very feminine. I named my 2nd daughter Celeste Mackenzie. I love it as well because not every other kid has her name. Its very unique.
