Middle name for Aurora?

DD1 is Iris Luna, nn. Irie, named partly for DH's grandmother and partly for our favourite song, as well as other sentimental reasons.

We have decided that DD2 will be Aurora, nn. Rory, as DH proposed to me in Iceland while we were watching the Aurora Borealis, or the Northern Lights. The only problem is we can't think of a middle name, and would quite like to have one.

We like Aurora Rose, but we think there'/ too many "R" sounds, especially if she ends up being called Rory. We also like Aurora Violet, and I like the image that conveys in my head of the Northern Lights! Any thoughts on this?

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

I personally think it needs to be something short and simple for balance.

My friend has an Aurora Dawn. I'm not convinced though as it sounds a bit like calling your daughter Mary Marie.

I like the R sounds together. Aurora Rae?
