"Sweet Crescent Moon, up in the sky. You sing your song so sweetly after sunshine passes by..." I love this name! I don't like Cress as a nickname however (for people in real life).

Lovely for a bold middle name. Iffy for the first.

I knew a Crescence, which seems a bit more usable. She was also really cool so that helped. :)
