It's pretty. Clementine Cassiopeia would be pretty--I have been struggling to find a middle name I like with Clem.

I think Cassiopeia is very pretty and would work wonderfully on a girl.
Cassia fits fine as a nickname, in my opinion.
Seeing as it's a five syllable name, I'd go for a short middle name.Cassiopeia Jane
Cassiopeia Maeve
Cassiopeia Io
Cassiopeia June
Cassiopeia Rose
Cassiopeia Niamh
Cassiopeia Ruby
Cassiopeia Hope
Cassiopeia Luna (for a moon-and-star sort of theme; I like this one)
Cassiopeia Daphne

Where have I heard this before?This is really annoying me! Where on earth have I heard this name?
It was the name Cassiopeia or something similar with the nn Cassie.
Maybe on TV or in a book or something, any ideas? If not I must have had some weird premonition-deja vu dream.Please help this is driving me insane!thanks

I love Cassiopeia in Greek, not in English. Cassia works as a nn.

How is it pronounced in Greek?

As far as I know (I'm not Greek ;)): cahs-yo-PEY-ah. I MIGHT be wrong, but I'm pretty sure.

I like Cassiopeia. It's not something I'd use, but I'd like to see it on another person.
Cassia (CASS-ee-a) would be a nice nn.

I really love it. It's so dramatic but not at all over-the-top. Very mysterious, very beautiful. I absolutely adore it and might actually consider it. Hmm...I especially adore Cassia as my boyfriend's sister is Cassia. It works really well as a nickname as well. So does Cass and Cassie. How about:Cassiopeia Ivy
Cassiopeia Astrid
Cassiopeia Yvette
Cassiopeia Felicity
Cassiopeia Claire
Cassiopeia Eden
Cassiopeia Evangeline
Cassiopeia Mildred
Cassiopeia Ava

It's quite a mouthful. You'd probably get the wrong pronunciation all the time which, trust me, is really annoying. On a more personal level, I really don't like the way it sounds at all. Somewhat like a bunch of vowel sounds all thrown together. It's not pleasing to look at, either. Cassia works, if you're saying it more like ka-see-ah than ka-sha. I don't think ka-sha really does it. As for the mn... a nice short one would be nice! Taken from your PNL, Lily would do just fine.
