I love Coraline. I've also read the
Neil Gaiman book, and I've loved the name ever since. It's such a pretty alternative to
Caroline, which I don't care much for, and a more sophistocated alternative to
Coralie, which I do like but it's always felt a little bit too delicate and frilly. And I just loved the character in the book :-)
I've actually been to a book signing of
Neil Gaiman a few years ago (around the time when Coraline was released), and the guy who was interviewing him asked which was the proper way to pronounce it. Gaiman himself said it "cora-line".
