About the name
Selene is Greek — the moon goddess herself, who drove her silver chariot nightly and loved the sleeping shepherd Endymion so much she asked Zeus to keep him young forever.
Selene holds American top-800 use and rises with the celestial-mythology wave (Luna's success pulls her sister upward).
Three silver syllables (seh-LEE-nee or seh-LEEN). It pairs well with grounded middles (Selene Ruth, Selene Jane). On our vibe map it is Celestial at goddess-grade with Mythological chariot and Dark Academia moonrise.
