What do you think of these somewhat religious names for sisters?
Serafina and Evangeline.
Serafina is of Hebrew origin and means “Angel”, roughly translated. Evangeline is “good news”, but obviously does have some religious undertones.
Though religious names are usually not my taste, I thought these two were particularly appealing together; what are your opinions? Can you suggest possible middle names?
Thanks!

I think these names are beautiful with wonderful meanings! Great job. Evangeline is one of my favorites!

I like them both, and not because of the religious undertones, I just think they’re pretty names.

I like Serafina a little but Evangeline is just way too religious. A lot of people use it in a political sense (at least where I live; we’re pretty liberal in Minnesota) and it’s though of as a politician who’s overly religious or people who try to push their religious beliefs on others.
It’s a pretty name though.

i really love evangeline and to me a good middle name would be brooke. for serafina i think jade sounds really good. even switching the middle names would still sound good.

Serafina actually comes from Serafim – a name of an archangel.
Evangeline is some saint’s name.
I know a girl named Serafima. I love that name. Evangeline remings me of those evangelical psychos, watch “Jesus Camp”, even online, and you’ll see why I’m scared

Very adorable 🙂

I’m not crazy about Serafina, but Evangeline is exquisite. I wish I could suggest some middle names, but that is my weakness. Good luck 🙂

I think Serafina is nice you don’t hear it often. Evangeline is different you can call her Eve for short.
How about Serafina Marie or Evangeline Leigh

I think they sound very religious! But out of those two my favorite is Serafina! I don’t know why i just always think of like gems like a sapphire or something i just think it is so beautiful. It also sounds like angels or something lol. But as much as i like Serafina i think Evangeline sounds more religious cause you know how it means good news i think of the Bible so i guess i like Serafina but Evangeline sounds more religious! Hope i helped you!

Evangeline is a beautiful name and so is Serafina. I think that the nicknames Sera and Eva sound very cute together also 🙂

I think they are really good names. Also I love angles. But since you are asking for middle names I think Serafina Mary… sounds like a good first and middle name put to gether. Know for Evangeline I think hers should be Evangeline Lois….!
