Can I ask for your suggestions for A names?

We already have an Aurora.

Love nature names but am not fixated on that.

Have more ideas for girls but next to none for boys! Any suggestions for either would be appreciated, thank you.

Sadly, there are no nice star names beginning with A!

Naturey ones for girls: Acacia, Abilene, Aderyn, Alssa, Amarantha, Amber, Amethyst, Anthea.

The only possibly masculine one, as a previous poster said, is Aspen.

Other A names:
Girls: Abeni, Adalet, Adelaide, Alethea, Amara, Amerie/Amery, Amina, Annora

Either: Alexis

Boys: Adwin, Andris

Why does it have to begin with A?

If you already have an Aurora I certainly wouldn't use a name beginning with A for another girl (they will get post mixed up and although it's minor I just don't see the need when there are 25 other letters in the alphabet).

For boys:
Abel
Adam
Alec
Arlo

Alex?

Not a nature name, but suitable for boy or girl.

Nice as it is, IMO, though you could obviously go the Alexander/dra/dria route for full if you prefer.

Boys:
Atlas
Atticus
Archer
Ash
Arlo
Able
