Darcie and Aurora too common?

28 replies

Are Darcie and Aurora becoming too common? They are such pretty names but I want a unique name.

Other names up for debate:
Gabrielle
Elise
Bonnie
Sadie
Sally
Pixie (too out there/better as a nickname?)

Are any of these names too common?

I want a name that's pretty and unusual but not weird or will be difficult for kids to spell/pronounce.

Please tell me which ones you like the most. Thanks.

I really love Darcie! Bonnie is cute too. What about Macy/Macie?

Ah, guess that's Darcie off the list then :(

What age group do you teach? I know Aurora isn't a common name among teenagers and adults but over the past couple of years, I've seen it as a suggested name lots of times and new mums calling their baby girls Aurora.

As I teacher I've only ever come across one Aurora, but lots of Darcies, if that's any help?!
