I like Aurelia but not sure I’m saying it right (oar - rell - ee- ah ?)

I like Florence but really not keen on Flo.

I’m not keen on Aurelia. Florence is better.

Thank you! Glad no one was completely repulsed. My concern was the pronunciation of Aurelia ... I teach primary so didn’t want a top 10 name as I have always taught so many.

We also already have a 3 Year old called Rupert - another marmite choice I know Smile x

Genuinely both my absolute favourite names, though Florence pips it for me at the moment.

Florence

Florence is beautiful. Aurelia is nice too, but I wouldn't know how to pronounce it.

Florence

Both lovely, but I much prefer Florence. I taught an Aurelia last year and she often had her name mispronounced unfortunately.

Aurelia is better. Florence might get nn flo which I dislike.

Absolutely love Aurelia.
