Cora-line, and I don't like it...too much like Caroline, but less pretty.

[vixenofflames.livejournal.com]

First instinct was Cora-LEEN.

It's interesting but would be troublesome of pronunciation. As one whose first and last name is mispronounced, I can tell you that sucks.

[vixenofflames.livejournal.com]

Bad grammar ahoy. Apologies - working on 3 hours of sleep here.

I pronounce it as cora-leen but I think it should be cora-line.

[lovablemess.livejournal.com]

Cora-line. And I love it. It's a great book by Neil Gaimen.

I would pronounce it like Caroline..but with Core obviously.

I don't really like it. It's not horrible though.

love it, and it is the name of a great book. I would say it CORA-line.

[freezemyazaleas.livejournal.com]

CO-ra-leen.

This is one of my friends' favorite name.

Cora-LEEN, it's french.

[sweetrhythms.livejournal.com]

initially, I would pronounce it CORA-line but I know it's pronounced Cora-LEEN.

cora-LINE
and I like it because it reminds me of Neil Gaiman

[geeki.livejournal.com]

second this.

Although I believe they are making Coraline into a movie. *eek*

[lovablemess.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I heard that, too. Not looking forward to it.

[quite-rosie.livejournal.com]

REALLY?!

[requiem-morrow.livejournal.com]

YAY for Neil!!

[arbus.livejournal.com]

i dont like it. my name is caroline and i suspect that she would forever be correcting people that her name isnt caroline, its coraline. that would sort of stink.

[istytehcrawk.livejournal.com]

Agreed.

[wolf-shadow.livejournal.com]

Neil says Coh-rah-LINE...

Cora-line

interesting, pretty.

[waitingonsunday.livejournal.com]

My first thought was cora-leen, but after I stared at it for a moment, I thought, "No, that ought to be cora-line."

I like cora-lynn the best of the three, though.

[geeki.livejournal.com]

Yup.

Good Omens is set to come out in.. 2009 I believe or 2010. I *THINK* they are supposed to film it next year.

THe good thing is Neil is keeping a lot of the script in his hands.

cora-LEEN. Don't like it
