It feels very artificial and made up, the name of a Mary-Sue character in a self-published fantasy novel. Looking at the name entry, it is the name of a character in a fantasy series. No comment on the series, I've not read it, but... yeah, it feels like a constructed fantasy-esque name. It seems like it should be pretty, but I really don't like it.Celaeno is so much better.

I find the meaning cool, even if the sound doesn't give the idea -it's similar to the Latin "caelum", meaning "sky". Although the sky can be dark too, my image of sky is an azure sky with the sun and white clouds.
I also find it original, unique and energetic.
